Bill Edler just couldn't catch a break today. He took two tough hits right before dinner and a few minutes ago he suffered a fatal blow. After a player in early position raised to 1,625, Edler and two other players called. The flop came and it was checked around to the player on the cutoff, who bet 5,000. Edler then check-raised for his last 23,000 and his opponent thought a bit before making the call.
Edler's had outflopped his opponent's and it looked like he was about to more than double his stack. That's when the fell on the river, dealing Edler another brutal beat that brought his day to an end.
