The last starting flight of the Roughrider Poker Tour $640 Main Event is underway at Jackpot Junction. Cards went in the air at noon for Flight 1C, and today is the final chance to earn a seat on Championship Sunday.
Players start with 60,000 chips and play 40-minute levels. Unlimited re-entry and late registration stay open for 12 levels, until about 9pm, so the field should keep growing through the afternoon. When registration closes tonight, the final field size and prize pool for the Main Event will be locked in.
Flight 1C plays down to 15% of the field, rounded up. Everyone still standing at that point bags their chips and returns tomorrow at 11am, already in the money. They’ll join the Flight 1A and 1B survivors to battle for the custom RPT bracelet from Westley’s Jewelry. The top 10 finishers also win $1,000 Golden Tickets to the RPT Golden Nugget Main Event in Las Vegas.
If you already bagged in Flight 1A or 1B, you can still play today. Bag again and RPT pays you $1,500 for your smaller stack, which is then removed from play.
