Huck Seed Hits Broadway and Takes Massive Pot

Level 7 : 1,000/1,000, 0 ante

We caught up with the action with a flop of {Q-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and Huckleberry seed holding the button. Olivier Bousquet bet 6,000, Seed raised to 16,000 and Seed quickly called. The turn brought the {6-Diamonds} and Seed shoved his entire stack into the middle. Bousquet insta-called and tabled the {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds}, while the famously mellow Seed shrugged and flipped up {A-Hearts}{10-Spades} for the semibluff. Heading to the river, Seed needed to catch a Jack or an Ace to survive. When the dealer peeled the {J-Spades}, giving Seed a Broadway straight, he simply shrugged again while scooping a major pot. Bousquet still holds one 25k add-on, however, so this match is far from over.
