Edler Takes a Hit

Full Tilt Pro Bill Edler limped into the pot from under the gun and the action folded around to an unknown player in middle position who kicked it up to 1,200. Action then folded back around to Edler who doubled his opponent's raise, making it a total of 2,400 to go. His opponent opted to call and saw a flop of {9-Clubs}

.

Post-flop, Edler continued his aggression, firing a continuation bet of 3,200; his opponent called.

The turn brought the {2-Hearts}

and 'The Stunning One' fired again, this time tossing 5,125 worth of chips across the betting line; he was called once more.

The last card off the deck was the {3-Diamonds}

prompting both players to put on the brakes. At the showdown, Edler tabled a pocket pair of fives which played second fiddle to his opponent's pair of nines (A-9) and he was forced to surrender the hand.

Edler dropped to 14,000 in chips after the hand, though he's still above average heading into the break.
