Welcome to Day 2 of Poker Night in America at Golden Nugget
Three starting flights are in the books, and it's time for Day 2 of Poker Night in America $1,675 Main Event at Golden Nugget.
Just 25 players have qualified today, as the tournament drew a total of 136 runners, and there are plenty of recognizable names among them. Zo Karim (344,500), Chad Eveslage (296,000), Sam Panzica (199,500), Matt Glantz (183,000), Brandon Cantu (179,500), and Nacho Barbero will all be sitting in when play begins at noon.
They'll all be looking up in the counts at Mike Comisso though, as he bagged a monstrous 575,000 on Day 1b and comes in as the leader.
Things begin with blinds of 1,500/3,000/500, as that's where Day 1a bagged, so the other starting flights followed suit. It's about midway through Level 15, with 24:40 remaining in the level. Levels through 17 will be 40 minutes, and levels thereafter will last one hour. According to the structure sheet, the day is scheduled to last until a televised final table of five remains.
