Freddy Deeb raises to 2,500 from the button, John Juanda reraises to 10,000 from the small blind and Deeb calls. Both players draw one card each. First to act, Juanda tanks for several minutes on his own action before betting 65,000 (enough to put Deeb all in). Deeb counts his stack (44,650) and makes the dealer give Juanda back his change. This would be Deeb’s first attempt to try and steal information from his opponent. Deeb would tank for another few minutes, asking Juanda a series of questions as he desperately looks for a sign of weakness. He doesn’t get what he’s looking for and decides to fold. Juanda re-checks his cards as Deeb tells him to show the bluff. Just as Juanda is about to turn over his cards, Bobby Bellande chimes in and tells him not to. Juanda looks at his friend and leaves the decision up to him. “Do you want me to show or not?” He asks Bellande. Bellande replies with a straight face, “Don’t show your cards, because if it is a bluff I’m gonna want to call you down all night.” Juanda listens to his friend and opts not to show the hand as the whole table gets a laugh, including Bellande who we’re pretty sure was serious.

Player Tags: Huck Seed, Greg Mueller, David Grey, Phil Ivey, Vanessa Rousso Level 1 Update: Rousso Takes A Big Pot EarlyJun 10, '09 Blinds: 50-100 with a 25 ante Entrants: 62 Chip Counts: 1. Huck Seed – 32,000 Average Chip Count: 30,000 Notable Eliminations: None Big Hands:
Vanessa Rousso raised to 300 from the cutoff and the player in seat 2 was next to act on the button. He repopped it to 4,300 more and Rousso made the call. It was then time to draw. Draw: Rousso Stands Pat, Seat 2 Stands Pat Rousso showed down 9-7-4-3-2 and her opponent flashed a 10, then he mucked his hand. Rousso scored a nice sized pot early on and she was up to almost 20,000, her two reload chips still intact. Chan And Lindgren Tangle After both players had drawn their cards, Johnny Chan fired 800 into the pot and Lindgren thought for a few moments before making the call. Chan showed a 10-low and Lindgren mucked his hand. Chan took in the pot and was around 13,000 in the early going. Lindgren dropped to 9,200 but would get some back in later hands.
The player in seat 5 min-raised to 200 and Lindgren made the call. Draw: Seat 5 draws 1 card, Lindgren draws 1 card Erick Lindgren led out for 600 after the draw and his opponent mucked his hand, giving the pot to Lindgren. But Lindgren was not done. A few hands later, the player in seat 6 drew two cards while Lindgren took one card. Seat 6 then checked to Lindgren who fired 700 into the pot. Seat 6 mucked his hand and Lindgren took down another pot. Lindgren was up to 16,000 with his two reload chips still intact. Seed Pushes Grizzle Out Sam Grizzle raised to 600 from early position and action folded around to Huck Seed in the big blind. Seed then raised it 2,600 total and action was back on Grizzle. Grizzle tanked for a bit and then threw his cards into the muck. Seed took in the pot and he was up to 32,000 after he used his two reload chips. Left In The Deck: Bartender, I’ll Take A Double Shot As the tournament began, it was explained to Sam Grizzle that the two red chips in front of him were to rebuy his chips. Grizzle needed clarification from Huck Seed and Mike Matusow that these chips were just reload chips and that they would not cost anything extra. This was a relief to Grizzle, who said “If this is a rebuy tournament I am not playing.” After this was explained, Grizzle elected to take his reload immediately and Huck Seed followed suit. Players can use their reload at any time during the first three levels. If they do not use it by the end of level 3, the players are forced to take the 20,000 in chips.

After taking a 100,000 pot with a pair of aces, Huck Seed had Vanessa Rousso on the ropes. Rousso made her move with the Q
Sam Farha and Huck Seed's match up was quite interesting. At one point, both players thought they were on break and tried to walk off the set. They were quickly told to continue and the match resumed. Then, shortly after Vanessa Rousso won her match, Farha tried to take a phone call and walked off the stage. He was quickly told to go back and play, which he did shortly thereafter. 
Seed then doubled up twice in a row, leaving Farha with a much smaller lead. The blinds then increased to 30,000 - 60,000 and the lead changed several times with just a preflop all in move.
Huck Seed had David Oppenheim all in and covered holding 8
Glen Chorny thought he hit his hand on the river, but it ended up costing him his tournament.
Huck Seed became the most consistent performer in NBC Heads-Up history when he defeated Gus Hansen today in the round of 32. He has now cashed in each of the five years of this event. Seed might be joined very soon in the five-timer's club if Scott Fischman wins his match against David Williams.
Huck Seed had the lead in the match against Gus Hansen and both players picked up solid hands preflop to get it all in.| Jump to | | Page 1 of 4 | Next |
