A Souped-up Bentley

Edler eliminated
Edler eliminated
With about 7,000 in the pot on a flop of {10-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {5-Spades}, one player checked to Amit Makhija. He fired 5,000 before Bill Edler raised to 12,000. Wayne Bentley snap-called the 12,000 and the first player along with Makhija folded.

The turn brought the {3-Clubs} and Edler checked. Bentley fired 15,000 and then Edler put in a raise to what looked like 55,000. Bentley moved all in and Edler made the call.

Edler began the hand with over 100,000 chips and tabled {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds}. Bentley held a flopped set of eights -- {8-Clubs} {8-Hearts}.

The river was the {9-Clubs} and couldn't produce a miracle for Edler. He was sent packing. Bentleyaccelerated himself up to 335,000 chips and is the clear leader heading into the final minutes of play for Day 1a.
