Adam Hahn has capped off a strong summer of poker by winning the $600 Main Event at the 2026 RGPS Golden Expedition Dallas series, held at Palace Poker. The victory comes just weeks after Hahn finished runner-up in a tournament in Houston, marking his best result yet after years away from the felt.
The Dallas Main Event drew 1,058 entries across eight starting flights, well surpassing its guarantee and building a $529,000 prize pool. Hahn outlasted the field to defeat Jason Fitzpatrick in heads-up play, earning $91,456 along with his first RunGood ring.
Hahn, who owns a vehicle sales business in the Dallas area, said he hadn’t played serious tournament poker in roughly a decade after being an active player in college. He credited his wife and three children for supporting his return to competitive play this summer.
His father, a retired regular in the low-stakes cash games, was on hand throughout the tournament, providing encouragement while railing his son’s progress.
Hahn entered the final day in the middle of the pack and gradually climbed the leaderboard as the money bubble approached. He also won a high-hand flip during the final nine players, securing a $2,000 travel package to the RunGood Caribbean Poker Series in Aruba next month.
The heads-up battle against Fitzpatrick featured several lead changes before Hahn secured the title with a decisive final hand. He said the winnings would mainly benefit his children rather than change his own lifestyle.
