Seed Survives a Scare

[user140525]

Johnny Chan folded on the button, and Huck Seed moved all for 112,000. Howard Lederer snap-called in the big blind, and it was time for a high-stakes flip.

Seed: {a-Hearts} {9-Clubs}
Lederer: {5-Clubs} {5-Diamonds}

The {7-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} flop missed Seed, and Chan and Lederer alternated calling for cards to give them a sweat. The {k-Clubs} wasn't one of them. And the {a-Spades} on the river certainly wasn't what Lederer was looking for. With the timely ace-ball, Seed doubled up to 225,000. Lederer was left with 235,000.
