9:07 p.m. We have just learned that play will continue for two more levels and can stop at 27 players. But if there
are still more than 36 players at the end of two levels, play will continue until 36 remain. Play is now at level 23 where
blinds are $20000/$40000 with a $5000 ante.

Ayaz Mahmood beating his set of Jacks with a Ace high flush. Rep Porter just doubled up against Lee Watkinson, bringing
his stack up to 3,500,000. Rep hit a flush on the turn, beating the set of 6's Lee received on the flop. David Tran with
pocket 6's held up against the A K of Dag Martin Mikkelsen to double up his chips to 3,290,000. Mikkelsen dropped to
4,100,000.
11:02 p.m. Avi Cohen is up to 5,000,000 now. He attributed his recent success to having pocket K's three times in a row!
Average chip count is 2,500,000 with 50 players left. And there are 3 players over 6 million in chips.
11:48 p.m. Ladies and gentlemen, the price of poker just went up to level 24 having blinds of $25000/$50000 with a $5000 ante.
Top dogs in the field are Ray Henson at 8,500,000 chips, Scott Freeman at 6,510,000, Lee Childs at 6,505,000, Philip Hilm 5,300,000 and

1:11 a.m. Sunday July 15 Big upsets since midnight passed. For one, Avi Cohen is out of the Main Event after his all-in with A 8
met up with the A K of Hevad Khan who paired his King card on the river. Also Dag Martin Mikkelsen is also in the busted category. Dag had lost
a lot of chips in a few hands, when he goes all-in preflop with A K. He was called by David Tran who had pocket A's, winning the hand and sending
Dag to the cashier for his money. Tran is now up to 8,400,000. Chip leader is Philip Hilm with 9,000,000 now in his stack.
2:07 a.m. The game is upped to level 29 with blinds at $30000/$60000 with a $10000 ante. Add to the list of non-contenders Maria Ho,
Rep Porter, Philip Yeh and Jeff Banghart. We have one more to go before things are shut down for the night. Just FYI, in a horrible display
of disrespect, when Maria Ho was eliminated the spectators for the winner were extremely drunk and were high fiving the winner so close to the
table Maria could not even get up. Hopefully bad conduct scenes like this will be addressed by the WSOP so that they do not reoccur. And if you
read this Maria, congratulations you did well.
2:16 a.m. Ayaz Mahmood went out in 37th place and play ends for the night.
