Mierkalns Survives as Bubble Looms

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

There are 75 players remaining meaning we are only three away from making the money. Mark Mierkalns three-bet pre-flop and fired out a bet on the {A-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop and then put his last 1,300 in on the {J-Diamonds} turn. His lone opponent made the call and turned over {7-}{7-}. He was drawing dead as Mierkalns had {J-}{J-} for a turned set. The river was a meaningless {Q-Clubs} and Mierkalns scored the much needed double up.
