A lengthy day of 15 levels has wrapped up during the MSPT (Mid-States Poker Tour) $1,110 Main Event at Riverside Casino as the second of three flights drew 221 entries to bring the two-day total thus far to 305, solidifying that the $300K GTD will be surpassed in tomorrow’s final flight.

Of those 221 entries, only 26 players remained when chips went into bags, and it was Mark Fink (806,000) who outdistanced himself from the rest to take the overall chip lead into Day 2 thus far.

Following behind Fink was MSPT Hall of Famer Rob WazWaz (715,000) who caught steam at the end of the night after receiving a massive double-up from Frank Lagodich late in the evening.

Rounding out the top five stacks were Steve Alonzo (624,000), Mike Bowersock (434,000), and Al Carpenter (401,000).

Much like Day 1a, the final levels of the night saw an onslaught of casualties, with players such as MSPT Hall of Famer Kou Vang and MSPT champ Lee Rzentkowski among those to be eliminated before play concluded for the night with chips flying all across the remaining tables.

Several other familiar players will also be joining the aforementioned five. DJ Buckley (366,000), MSPT Champ Ken Komberec (280,000), and MSPT Hall of Famer’s Josh Reichard (202,000), Rich Alsup (115,000) & Aaron Johnson (79,000) are just a few more of the players to add their names to the Day 2 roster along with the 10 to have already advanced from Day 1a.

The final starting flight will get underway tomorrow at 3:00 p.m. Late registration and re-entries will remain open through Level 12 (approximately 11:40 p.m.).

Make sure to tune in to see who makes it through to Day 2.
