There will be a number of satellites running starting Nov. 17 where players can win a seat into the Main Event for $145.
Eicher Took Down Last RGPS Jamul Stop
At the last RGPS Jamula Casino stop in February, San Diego native Noel Eicher dominated the field of 500 entrants to win the trophy and $38,390 in an event that generated $250,000 in prize money.
Eicher agreed to a four-handed ICM chop and went on to defeat fellow Californian David Van Reyk during heads-up play to earn the trophy and remaining prize pool.
"It��s been a long road," Eicher told PokerNews in a winner's interview. "I��ve spent a lot of time studying and a lot of time playing. I��m glad to see it come to fruition in a tournament like this.��
