Gwinner Aggressive Early

European born Henrik Gwinner -- known for his aggressive style and relentless offense -- is quickly letting his tablemates know he's going to be the captain this afternoon.

He's already been involved in at least three or four relatively big pots this level, and slipped a little below the starting stack before the following hand took place:

The UTG+1 player limped into the pot before action folded around the table to Gwinner on the button who raised to 400. The unknown limper made the call and saw the flop come {J-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}. Action was then checked to Gwinner who made it 625 to play. His opponent countered with a check-raise to 1,925 after spending a minute or two in the tank. When the action returned to Henrik, he three-bet to 6,500 and his opponent sheepishly laid down his hand.

Gwinner's bullying style has him back over 20,000 in chips, but that could change any minute given his apparent desire to play as many pots as possible.
