Huck Seed Eliminated in 11th Place ($147,882)

No-Limit Hold'em

A short-stacked Huck Seed moved all in for 223,000 from middle position and received a call from Matthew Ashton in the cutoff. The rest of the field folded and the cards were turned up.

Seed: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Ashton: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

It was a bad spot for Seed, and according to the PokerNews Odds Calculator, he only had a 22.83% chance of surviving the hand with a 4.5% chance of a tie. That meant Ashton would win 72.67% of the time, and that actually increased to 88.18% on the {7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} flop.

Seed still had a 9.69% chance of catching a jack, but the {8-Clubs} turn saw that drop to 6.82%. The dealer burned one last time and put out the {3-Spades}. Seed missed and became the 2013 WSOP $50,000 Poker Players' Championship 11th-place finisher.
