Table Of Contents

After twelve years of bringing high-quality, mid-stakes poker to the United States, the RunGood Poker Series is going on the buses for its first overseas jaunt to Japan.

The RGPS is sponsoring a multi-day event at the Japan Open Poker Tour Grand Final festival in Tokyo. The winner of the RGPS Colossus will win an RGPS ring, while the whole field will have a shot at taking home some RunGood merch.

Because the RGPS Colossus will run alongside the main JOPT Grand Final festival, players can also compete for JOPT Trophies and professional contracts.
