Bill Edler Has Bonnie Tyler Moment

Yes, the former WPT champion truly was holding out for a hero (call). With the board reading {K-?} {8-?} {6-?} {7-?} {6-?} Edler made a call for 4,500 on the river with {A-?} {10-?}.

How good was the call?

Well his opponent was forced to show {A-?} {9-?} - So the {10-?} played.
