The RunGood Passport Season returns to South Florida with a seven-day stop at Harrah’s Pompano Beach, running May 12–17, 2026. Eleven ring events offer buy-ins from $120 to $1,110, and the schedule is anchored by a $250,000 guaranteed Main Event — one of the largest prize pools the region sees each spring.

About RunGood Poker Series
Founded in 2012 by Tana Karn, the RunGood Poker Series (RGPS) has built its reputation on player-friendly structures, accessible buy-ins, and a genuine focus on the mid-major poker market. Rather than chasing the ultra-high-stakes segment, RunGood has carved out a loyal following among players who want competitive, well-run tournaments without the barriers of the bigger national tours.
The 2026 Passport Season spans 17 venues from January through August, wrapping up at Thunder Valley Casino Resort in Lincoln, California. Each stop contributes to the Player of the Year standings, making every ring event meaningful beyond the immediate prize pool.
Venue
Harrah’s Pompano Beach sits in South Florida, roughly 10 miles north of Fort Lauderdale. The property runs a full-service casino and a dedicated poker room that has hosted several major regional series over the years.
