Top-Top Good for Stiglets

Eric Stiglets
Eric Stiglets
Table 22 is easily the most loose-passive table in the field this afternoon, and pro player Eric Stiglets is just fine with that. In the last hand over there, five players limped into Stiglets' big blind for 200. Looking down at {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}, Stiglets bumped it up to 1,700. He got called by both Wilbur Futhey and C.A. Walker, while the rest of the limpers got out of the way.

The three men saw the flop come out {A-Clubs} {10-Spades} {8-Hearts}, and Stiglets continued out with 1,500 chips. That was enough to get Futhey out, but Walker announced a raise to 3,500. Stiglets snap-called and then checked to the raiser when the {7-Clubs} hit the turn. Walker slowed down now, checking behind.

The last card off the deck was the {6-Spades}, and both men checked once again. Stiglets quickly tabled his {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}.

"We got a winner down there," muttered Walker as he opened up his own hand, showing the {A-Spades} {4-Diamonds}. The pot was pushed to Stiglets, and he has worked his way over the starting stack for the first time today. He's sitting right at 25,000 now.
