Mike Comisso began Day 2 as chip leader of the Poker Night in America $1,675 Main Event at Golden Nugget, and though he lost that distinction after a quiet early part of the day, he regained the highest spot when it was time to bag up for the televised final table.

Comisso put 1.263 million within the bag, and he'll be joined for the five-handed TV table by Vinicius Lima (1.198 million), Chan Pelton (1,050,000), David Morton (292,000), and Dimitry Agrachov (282,000). The players bagged just a little after the start of Level 22 (8,000/16,000/2,000).

The day began with 25 runners who advanced out of 3 starting days. Fifteen were set to cash, but it surely ended up being 16 players within the money when voice actor Nika Futterman and Maxim Sorokin both busted at the bubble and chopped the 15th-place payout since they were at different tables.

Zo Karim, Brandon Cantu, and Kyle Frey were probably the most notables who busted shy of the money.

Once the bubble burst, Matt Glantz and 2016 Million Dollar Heater winner Jake Daniels were two of the players making the money but falling in need of the general table.

Once that final table started, it was Lima in command with 1.15 million while Comisso hadn't much headway from his start-of-day stack and had slipped to 3rd. Lima continued to climb by sending Nacho Barbero out the door after his fellow European Poker Tour High Roller champ Sam Panzica.

Comisso won a race against Frank Bonacci with the against the to send him out eighth, and he continued to tug enough medium-sized pots to chip up. Chad Eveslage went out seventh to Pelton within the same flip, with Pelton's sixes prevailing.

Then, Pelton picked off a large two-barrel bluff from Lima with the on an runout, with Lima giving up at the river and Pelton taking the pot to bring him back to the pack.

Six-handed play lasted awhile, but gold bracelet winner Joey Weissman was the person who finally fell at the final table bubble, though it took an unlucky beat to take action. Morton, who made his second PNIA final table once you have third at Choctaw in April for $131,590, crippled Weissman when he shoved in second to behave for 143,000 during Level 22 (8,000/16,000/2,000) with and Weissman aroused from sleep with the and reshoved from the button. After a flop, Morton ran a Broadway straight to go away Weissman with not up to two big blinds, and he couldn't recover.

Players will arrive early on Tuesday for a brief media session in preparation for the televised final table, and cards must be within the air between 12:45 p.m. and 1 p.m. local time.
