Plenty of Extras Being Given Away at This Year's WSOP
Level 7
The buzz inside the walls of the Rio extends beyond just the tournaments on the 2013 World Series of Poker schedule. Online poker in Nevada is a very, very hot topic right now, and WSOP.com is making a lot of noise.
While the site has yet to launch, you can head to the Lambada Room of the Rio or look for one of the beautiful and friendly WSOP.com ladies walking the hallways to sign up for a free, personal WSOP.com online poker account. This is a great way to get a jump on the site's registration, and plenty of people have already taken this opportunity.
What's more is that the WSOP will be hosting daily raffles for everyone that has taken the time to register for WSOP.com at the Rio. What can you win? Plenty of fantastic prizes including 36 WSOP seats!
Players 21 years of age and older who sign up for a WSOP.com account will automatically be entered into the “36-Seat Giveaway” where a randomly-selected winner will win a seat into the next day’s first WSOP gold bracelet event. One of the events eligible in this promotion is the $111,111 One Drop High Roller No-Limit Hold’em tournament that is expected to feature a $10,000,000 prize pool and allow you to play poker with the biggest names in the game. In total, $182,333 in WSOP seats, including a seat to the WSOP Main Event, are being given away during this one-of-a-kind WSOP.com promotion.
In addition to the 36-Seat Giveaway, a “Hot Seat” promotion will allow any player who signs up for a WSOP.com online account and wears their WSOP.com patch on their chest at the table while playing an event to be randomly selected to receive 500 bonus dollars deposited directly into their WSOP.com online account once the site has received all regulatory approvals and launches.
With 62 WSOP gold bracelet events and three winners promised for the Main Event, this promotion includes $32,000 worth of value to those participating.

Scott Abrams vs. Phil Ivey
Level 5
Phil Ivey raised from the cutoff and Scott Abrams three-bet from the button. The blinds folded, Ivey called, and the flop fell 
. Ivey check-called Abrams' bet and then both players checked the 
turn. The 
river completed the board and Ivey bet. After a few moments, Abrams called.
Ivey tabled 
for trip sixes, besting Abrams' holdings to take down the pot.

Hellmuth AWOL
Level 5
Phil Hellmuth registered late for this event and began play after the dinner break. His initial table was soon broken, and soon afterward the Poker Brat was sighted at his new table with his head in his hands. A few minutes later, he had left the tournament area. His seat has remained empty for 30 minutes now. As his chips are slowly blinded off, the question lingers...when will the 13-time bracelet winner return?
