Huckleberry Seed, better known by the abbreviated Huck, is the latest Poker Hall of Fame inductee. Seed received more than 25% of the vote to become the 59th inductee.
The open-nomination process was whittled to 10 candidates and the living members of the Poker Hall of Fame cast their votes on these 10 stars. Each voter had 10 points to distribute how they wished. This means 300 votes was the maximum any single player could receive.
Seed received 76 votes or 25.33% of the total possible votes. He pipped renowned tournament director Matt Savage to the top spot. Savage received 51 (17.00%) of the vote and it is only a matter of time before he’s inducted.
PokerStars founder Isai Scheinberg came in third place with 45 (15.00%) votes. Scheinberg receiving this many votes came as quite a surprise, not least because he isn’t American.
