Bill Edler and Blake Purvis just tangled on a big hand. On a flop of {J-Spades}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, Blake Purvis bet 7,000 into a pot of 14,000. After a couple of minutes, Edler made the call. The turn came {9-Clubs} and Purvis immediately went all in. Edler tanked for about five minutes before finally making the call.

Bill Edler: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}

Blake Purvis: {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

Purvis exclaimed, "Wow, how could you make that call? Club!"

The river fell {Q-Clubs}, completing Purvis's flush and sending Edler to the rail.
