Huck Seed

Academic start

Huck Seed, nicknamed Huckleberry, was extremely good in studies and excelled in first year of electrical engineering. His abnormal height of 6’7” made him a basketball star in his California College. But as champions are always made by accident, he suddenly felt his future lay elsewhere. He left the college on leave in 1989 and never turned back.

Tendency

He is too quiet and thus he is hard to understand. This adds depth to his personality. He somehow knew he could cash this on poker table and turned into a proposition gambler. In card games, there are numerous turns to gamble on, and this fascinated him.

Idiosyncrasy

He once waged a $20000 bet with poker brat Phil Hellmuth Jr. that he could stand in shoulder high ocean water for as long as 18 hours. He stood for three hours and then capitulated, thus losing heavily. He however recovered his earnings, when he went as far as Phil’s home in Wisconsin and beat him in a 9-ball 20 thousand bucks bet. He is also known to wage strange bets in poker at times, where he tries to play with the player’s patience. One such chance ride with Chan in 2002 will be remembered for years. Incidentally, he lost.

Class

He may be adventurous, but his ways with cards is very smooth and enticing. He has won four WSOP bracelets. He excels more in NBC heads up poker, where he has an unparalleled 18-4 record. He has earned more than 2 million dollars and he is only in his late 30s yet.

Origin

His nativity is not conclusively known and there are guesses made that he might be from Montana. His silent character adds to his charm and the world’s lack of knowledge about him. Yet, on the poker table, he is a very dangerous proposition to tackle, as Phil Hellmuth Jr. himself puts.
