Some notes on Poker Runs (in general): The events actually have little to do with poker, beyond using the hand-rankings to score the event. You don't need to know a great deal about poker to take part, other than what beats what in the scoring - but we'll figure that out for you. Essentially a poker run is an excuse to meet up, travel, and have a good time at the stops (usually either five or seven) en route.
Participants meet at a pre-arranged point, and pick up details of their route and the stops they need to make. Each participant is given a score card which will be filled in as they progress along the route. At each designated stop, the participants draw a card at random (or are dealt a card, depending on the event rules). The card drawn or dealt is recorded on each participant's score card, and the winner of the event is the participant who makes the best five card poker hand at the end of the event.
