The RunGood Poker Series (RGPS) is bringing its Golden Expedition season to Caesars New Orleans from Sept. 3-13, with the stop offering a combined $330,000 in guaranteed prize pools across 14 ring events over 11 days.
The series will open with the $400 Series Kickoff, a two-day event carrying a $100,000 guarantee and offering five separate starting flights for players to choose from.
Other notable events on the schedule include a $200 Tag Team tournament, a $250 Seniors Event, a $300 Ladies event, and a $300 Big Stack No-Limit Hold’em ring event. Mixed game enthusiasts will also have the chance to play a $400 Pot-Limit Omaha event.
The centerpiece of the series is the $800 buy-in Main Event, which carries a $200,000 guarantee. It will kick off on Sept. 11 with the first of four starting flights before playing down to a winner on Sept. 13. PokerNews will provide live reporting coverage of the Main Event. That same day, the series will wrap up with the $400 Black Chip Bounty and $200 Sendoff Turbo No-Limit Hold’em events.
This marks RunGood’s second consecutive year in New Orleans after returning in 2025 for the first time since 2015. Last year’s RGPS Grand Prix New Orleans Main Event drew 307 entrants and a $200,000 prize pool, with Jeremy Gaubert claiming his first RunGood ring and $45,897 after defeating Zackary Poll heads-up.
RunGood’s team is currently running stops at Graton Resort and Casino in California and Caesars Southern Indiana, with a Kentucky stop at The Barrel Franklin to follow.
