��Ever since I first traveled to the ��Big Easy�� in 2008, New Orleans has always ranked high on my list of destinations for a poker event," said PokerNews Editor-in-Chief Donnie Peters. "It��s vibrant, cultured, jazzy, and historical, and we all know how much the city likes to party. Combine all of that with a fun, competitive poker tournament such as the RunGood Cup Championship and we��re talking about a spicy recipe for success that could rival some of the best Cajun cuisine the area has to offer. And trust me, you��re definitely going to want to get out and taste the town. If you��re looking for an affordable way to close out the poker year with a bang, this is the stop.��
