Scotty Nguyen Eliminates Bill Edler; Advances to the Round of 32

It was as if Scotty heard us pose the question and answered with conviction. On a board showing {4-Spades}{J-Spades}{2-Clubs}{A-Spades}, Edler moved all in with a made flush, but was looked up by "The Prince of Poker" who tabled the nut flush.

The win moved Scotty into the round of 32 for the first time ever. He'll face the winner of the feature table match-up between Gus Hansen and Don Cheadle tomorrow afternoon.
