Lindgren Sends Seed Sailing

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

Huck Seed raised under-the-gun to 2,000 and was called by a player in middle position, Erick Lindgren on the button and the big blind.

The flop came {4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Seed c-bet 6,000 after the big blind checked. The middle position player folded and Lindgren raised to about 30,000, which was enough to put Seed all in. Seed made the call.

Showdown
Seed: {7-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Lindgren: {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}

Seed was in bad shape despite having a straight-flush draw. The {5-Hearts} turn was no help and the {A-Hearts} river sealed the deal for Seed, sending him to the rail.

Lindgren now stands with a healthy stack of 110,000
