Edler Sidesteps Cooler

With over $300,000 in the pot and the board reading 9 9 3, Imran Amhad pushed his last $508,000 into the pot. After some thought Phillip Yeh pushed all in over the top. Bill Edler was on the button and quickly folded. Yeh asked, "Queens?" as he turned over his K K. He was right on the money as Amhad turned over Q Q. The turn and the river were the 6 and the K, and Yeh scooped the pot. Edler intimated to Card Player's Tim Lavali, that he had folded pocket Jacks. He said that he had called the $95,000 preflop knowing he was most likely behind and right he was.

Wolbert Bartlema Eliminated by Humberto Brenes
Humberto Brenes made an opening raise from under the gun. Wolbert Bartlema, also in early position, reraised all in for about 400,000 total. Action folded back around to Brenes, who had Bartlema well covered, and he called. The players showed... Brenes: {Ah}{Kd} Bartlema: {Jd}{Js} Brenes stood triumphantly, addressed the crowd and loudly asked, "Who have the best hand?" An excited crowd packed into the ESPN feature table area yelled in unison: "HUMBERTO!" Wolbert Bartlema got no help from the community cards and was sent home. Brenes is now slightly over 1,000,000 in chips.

Please, no, not days of ESPN coverage to encourage this crap, please, someone, accept the shark mission and do mankind a favor!
