Seed Still in Control

Huck Seed has been zigging and zagging at the right times today. He played a curious heads-up hand a few moments ago but it came out fine for the former world champion. After one player limped into the pot preflop from middle position, Seed raised to 4,100, a rather sizable raise. The only caller was the preflop limper. That player checked to Seed on a flop of {4-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}. Seed tanked for about a minute before checking behind.

Both players also checked the {2-Clubs}, in much more rapid fashion. When the river fell {j-Diamonds}, Seed's opponent checked a third time, but Seed did not. He fired out a bet of 7,000, a bet that caused his opponent to dive into the tank. He was in there for almost two minutes, hands nervously shaking. He peeked back at his cards several times, shaking his head, before finally surrendering his hand.
