Huck Seed Wins National Heads Up Poker Championship ‘09
March 9, 2009
With all the huge names been offered for good odds by the book markers, not many would have seen this coming.
Huck Seed emerged from the 64 entrants as number 1 as he beat Vanessa Rousso at the final table.
The tournament has dealt out its fair share of shock exits for some of the bigger names within the tournament, with last years champion Chris ‘Jesus’ Ferguson been eliminated within the first round by Gabe Kaplan.
We posted some of the odds which were been offered for this championship from 2 companies, SportsBook and Bodoglife, with neither of the sites naming Seed as one of the favourates.
Seed won the game as his hand hit top pair on the flop, Vanessa hit second highest pair on the turn and believed she had Seed beaten as she called Seed’s all in, only to see that she was trailing.
Huck Seed isn’t a stranger to this championship coming 3rd last year and previous years have mixed results, walking away with prize money of $500,00 this year.
Seed plays his online poker at Full Tilt Poker alongside some of the other names that started the tournament such as Phil Ivey and Jennifer Tilly.
