Steven Edwards just took down another pot after opening to 123,000 from the button. Only Myroslaw Woroch called and the flop fell {8-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.

After making the standard button raise, and seeing the action checked to him by Woroch, Edwards c-bet for 164,000 and forced the fold.

Edwards won the next pot after that to continue climbing, and the chip leader is now beginning to use his ammunition accordingly.

Unfortunately for Edwards, he fired away one too many times though, responding to Eric Natishvili's small blind limp by shoving all-in from the big, effectively betting 408,000 to put Natishvili at risk. A quick call later and Edwards was forced to table the lowly {2-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for a baby-card bluff, and despite flopping a gutshot draw to the wheel straight on the {a-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}, the turn and river blanked off and he shipped a chunk of change to the next seat over.
