Itahi's databook rating for stamina is 3 which is the same level of stamina that kakashi has and kakashi stated that he has horrible stamina. if you don't know what stamina is. stamina is the blanket term for physical and spiritual energy IE chakra. anyone who has over 3 in stamina has more chakra than itachi. kisame's is 5, sasori's is 5 Deiara is 4, Kakuzu has a 4.5 in stamina Orochimaru has a 3.5. so in the end No itachi didn't have the second largest chakra reserves

Itachi doesn't have low chakra reserves though, it's just that the mangekyo techniques take up so much chakra that he doesn't have any left after using them. In his fight with sasuke, he was using the mangekyo techniques while sasuke was only using the sharingan but yet itachi's chakra reserves outlasted sasuke's. This not only proves that itachi doesn't have low reserves, it proves that he has more chakra than pre six paths power sasuke.
