Tom Binetti came into today with just under 400,000 chips and has hit the ground running in the early going. Binetti has a few smaller cashes to his name including a few at Borgata during 2016. Today marks a golden opportunity for Binetti to break through and notch his largest career tournament score.

Schuyler Twaddle is nearing the $400,000 mark in career earnings with the lion’s share of that total coming from a victory at Borgata in 2008. Twaddle starts Day 2 with over 300,000 and is joined at his table by fellow big stack Chris Caruso and previous SugarRush final tablist John Attanasio.

Anthony Tonzelli started Day 2 as the chip leader with 401,000. Tonzelli is in the midst of a strong 2016 that includes a runner-up finish in a Poker Night Classic event held at SugarHouse in April. Tonzelli earned $5,100 for that score and could top that with a final table run here today.
