Steinberg Folds to Edwards' Pressure

We are unsure of the exact preflop action, however, it appeared that Steinberg has raised from under-the-gun and was three-bet to 32,000 by Carl Edwards from the hijack position. Action folded back around to Steinberg and he called.

The flop came {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and Steinberg check-called a 20,000 bet from Edwards. Both players checked the {4-Diamonds} turn, however, when Steinberg checked again on the {9-Clubs} river, Edwards led out for 60,000. Steinberg fell into the tank and studied Edwards for a while, but eventually decided to slide his hand into the muck.

Edwards is up to 220,000 while Steinberg slipped to 300,000.
