At Sixes and Fives

Nobody in particular has stood out as the most aggressive preflop raiser, but in recent hands, John Strzemp has been taking it to his two opponents.

Meanwhile, he also won a small pot by being the caller, Jason Young raising it to 265,000 from the small blind and Strzemp matching the bet in the big.

The {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} board was checked all the way down where Strzemp took the pot with {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs} versus Young's {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}.

"You lost the minimum," commented Mike Schwartz.
