Mike 'The Hat' Glick Shares Insights on a High-Stakes Poker Hand
Mike 'The Hat' Glick, a regular at Bobby’s Room in Las Vegas, recently shared a detailed account of a high-stakes poker hand he played against Chris Kruk. The hand was played in March 2019 during a mixed game with a $2/$4k limit and a $500/$1,000/$1,000 big bet. Glick played the hand with Q9s, while Kruk held KTs.
The effective stacks were $40,000, but players had more chips at the table. Glick's decision to call with Q9s was influenced by several factors, including the future implications of his call. He considered how his opponents might adjust their strategies based on his actions, potentially allowing him to make better folds in future hands.
Glick's analysis of the hand highlights the complexity of high-stakes poker, where strategic considerations extend beyond the immediate outcome of a single hand. His insights provide a fascinating look into the mind of a seasoned poker player navigating the intricacies of mixed games and high-stakes play.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
