Time for the Young Ones

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action was caught on a pot of around 250,000 and a completed board of K10493. John Racener bet 180,000, sending his heads-up opponent, Stephane Revelly, to the tank. Revelly finally made the call and had to muck after Racener showed JJ.

Joshua Abiscott, who was on the table, was analyzing the hand with Huck Seed. Abiscott continued on as if Racener wasn't within earshot, eventually apologizing to the latter for the conversation.

But it didn't stop until Racener and Seed found themselves in an all-in situation against each other on a pot of around 200,000 and a flop of 826. Seed was all-in for 225,000 and action was with Racener. After stating he really didn't want Seed to go, he called.

Huck Seed: 87 All in
Joshua Abiscott: 99

Abiscott was ahead with his nines until the turn 7 dropped, giving Seed two pair. The 2 counterfeited Seeds two pair to give Abiscott the win.

Their conversation ended somehow with Abiscott saying that he deserved to win, to which Seed replied that the young ones were the ones who should.
