Henry Edmondson, Day 2 Level 19

Henry Edmondson is now sitting with ~1.1M after getting caught out by Kat Khaterzai but ended up winning the pot.

Edmondson opened the button to 25k and was 3-bet by Khaterzai in the big blind to 65k. Edmondson now 4-bet to 280k (~1/2 his stack) which prompted Khaterzai to move all-in. Khaterzai had him covered and would have him at risk after he made the call.

Edmondson Q♦2♠ vs Khaterzai A♥J♣ Pot: ~1.1M

Board: 2♣6♣K♣2♦6♥

Edmondson was caught bluffing but was committed to the hand after his 4-bet. His cards were live and he was fortunate to beat the better hand to stay alive. Khaterzai was the early chip-leader and survives the encounter with ~400k.
