Day 15 of the 2008 World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) at PokerStars had a familiar ring.

His incredible run has not only added nearly $350,000 to his bankroll, but gives him great confidence moving toward the Main Event on Sunday. Steven "PiKappRaider" Burkholder outlasted an extremely tough final table to win the bracelet. Meanwhile in Event #30, salamandra24 bested 741 others to capture the title.
