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 
flop and then put his last 1,300 in on the 
turn. His lone opponent made the call and turned over 
. He was drawing dead as Mierkalns had 
for a turned set. The river was a meaningless 
and Mierkalns scored the much needed double up.

Level 14
: 2,000/4,000, 0 ante
Inside the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino isn't the only place for you to satisfy your World Series of Poker appetite. WSOP.com is the leading online poker site in Nevada and has plenty of action running around the clock, seven days a week.
All summer long, a special promotion labeled Multi-Table Madness will be running from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. PST each night. The promotion will select one random hand at a random cash-game table during those hours that will award every player dealt into the hand with a cash bonus up to $100.
What's more is that WSOP.com will be sweetening the prize by giving players as much as $100 more for each additional table they're playing at during the time of the drawing. That means if you're playing in four different cash games when your table is selected, you could walk away with up to $400 in bonus money.
