Edler Wins a Huge Pot

A player limps from early position and Matt Graham raises to 900. Action folds to Bill Edler in the big blind. Edler looks down at his cards and then raises to 3,000. Graham re-raises all in. Edler tanks for three minutes before making the call and is all in.

Graham shows Q-Q and Edler shows {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}.

Edler spikes a king on the flop of {8-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and Graham needs to hit the case queen in order to win the hand.

The turn brings the {2-Clubs} and the river the {10-Diamonds}. Edler doubles up.

Edler now sits at around 29,000 while Graham has been knocked down to about 5,000.
