Chips for the taking

One of the easiest ways to build your stack is when you find yourself playing against one or more loose players. You first need to be able to recognize loose play, then wait for some good cards to come your way, and finally use the loose player's aggression against him. Or her. Last night, two women from Canada joined my table at about the same time. Both of them immediately started playing aggressively, and I tagged them both for loose players - one especially so. When I eventually got a premium hand of two kings, I got into a raising war preflop with the more aggressive of them, and ended up going all in. She only had a king ten offsuit, and was drawing dead on the river. I won a pot worth $104,200 and called it a night.

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 52 hands and saw flop:
- 5 out of 7 times while in big blind (71%)
- 5 out of 8 times while in small blind (62%)
- 20 out of 37 times in other positions (54%)
- a total of 30 out of 52 (57%)
Pots won at showdown - 8 of 10 (80%)
Pots won without showdown - 5

delta: $64,200
balance: $1,762,343
