I’d run up a similar stack by playing loose and aggressive on early streets and winning big pots when I made huge hands. He’d run up a stack of about $3000 by nitting it up and winning big pots when he made huge hands. Last night there was a young guy there, early 20s, whom I’d never seen before. I’m not real popular there because I raise a lot and bet the flop when I have nothing. Pretty much they play like giant nits and that’s enough to win because their big hands get paid off. The game as a whole plays loose and passive, and the better players are mostly tight and passive. I had AJo, so two blockers to some hands I thought he might continue with and a good chance of having at least one overcard if my raise got called. Edit: Wow somehow this was up for more than three days without anyone asking what my hand was? Sorry I forgot to include it, as I hinted in some of my responses to comments, it was kind of relevant.
