For those who don't know, this player is very good IMO. Extremely loose preflop and smart LAG postflop. Hands are in chronological order, and I think the first is by far the most interesting to discuss. How did I do? Hand 2 and 4 are very similar, and I'm wondering if I should contine to take this approach or if I'm just going to broke playing like that.
