Michael Graffeo began Day 2 near the top of the counts (second) and stayed there throughout the first two hours of the restart. To start the day, he claimed 332,500 chips but he’s nearly doubled his holdings and now sits on about 640,000 on first break.

Cards go back in the air shortly with blinds of 2,500/5,000 and a 500 ante. Graffeo holds one of the largest stacks in the room.

No stranger to the chip lead, Graffeo won the 2017 Lucky Hearts Poker Open WPTDeepStacks Main Event right here in Hollywood.
