For instance - let's say that you are playing in a multi-table tournament at your local casino.

Over the course of just one orbit, you are dealt Aces twice, Kings once and A-K in another hand.

In each instance, you are able to get your chips into the middle of the table pre-flop against someone that you are dominating. In all four cases, your hand holds up and you take down a massive pot.

In this case, there would be ample ammunition to call you a "cardrack".

If someone is a "cardrack", you can also say that they are "running hot" or "sunrunning" (aka running as hot as the sun).
