Little Wins a Big Race

All in holding {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}, Jonathan Little found himself in a coin-flip situation against long time pro Erik Seidel who went to battle with a pocket pair of nines.

The flop came {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{2-Hearts} which appeared to be a safe one for Seidel, but things grew worse and worse as the turn brought the {4-Hearts} giving Little a flush draw, and the {J-Hearts} on the river completed it.

With the win, Little climbed back up to ~10,000 in chips.
