quoted for truth

You'll get more traffic in the casinos for NL, but charity poker rooms are superior in tourney selections.

This is why they call you the terminator! Is this game really running well into the morning hours on Saturdays?

Rob's referring to the older regular at Pampas that plays Holdem and will randomly turn around to the Omaha table and announce " F U Omaha! Eaaaassssyyyy money"

I know the guy. Didn't know he played O8.

This was so sick. I love it.

BTW, Happy Easter, everyone.

Happy Easter to you too Frank, and all the other detroit area degenerates!

Please tell me this was Todd. Not because i'm heartless and want him to suffer -- i actually like the guy -- but because his bad beat laments are fast becoming legendary.

Thanks! Happy Easter to you and to all who celebrate it.

I just found out low content posting is acceptable on this thread.

Brag: I had sex with a girl.

Beat: it was a long time ago.

Variance: sometimes I come home from the poker room with more money than I showed up with.

This makes me think that you have never read any of my posts

Don't misundertsand. In a Detroit casino thread in Poker Venues, if some of the regs wanted to start talking about the Tigers game, for example, they can't, as it's off-topic for the casino. But in this thread, they could. This isn't meant to turn into BBV4L or anything.

Sorry man. It was a one off joke.

In an unrelated note, I saw Roma at electric stick the other day. He bought me a beer, good times.

We played for a bit, but not at the same table There was about $3000 between 6 players on my 1/2 table by 11pm. Quite impressive. If that happens at ES semi regularly, I'd like to become a semi-regular.

Lol would ya? How much?

Weekend recap:

My friends were staying at Greektown, also got me a room, so that's where we played 90% of the time. Hit the Wings and Tigs game.

Afterwards I attempted to play 1/2 on Sat. Played about 4 hands.

A7dd mp Hero ($188)
Btn raises $15ish
3 callers, I call
5 way

Flop 779ss

UTG bets $30ish
Hero makes it $75 (or 80)
BTN raises to $150ish
folds to me, I assume he has overpair
I ship
Btn shows 97os

Back to the pits

Now onto the brags/beats/variance portion! lol

These are estimatesfor the whole weekend)
Wings and Tigers tix Free
Poker -450
Craps +600 (obv was up about 2k at one point and left about 750 on the table)
3 Card -200
Bouzokis -200
Blackjack +$1200 (ran my last $40 up to 2200)


I think somebody mentioned Firekeepers? I may be down. I need a change of scenery!

Oh yeah, the previous day at GT about 4am...
Good game one stack over 2K! But I run bad...

I flop a set of Jacks with a King on board.
I bet the flop, turn and river(for value when a Q hits)
Dude rolls a set of Queens. He then stated I didn't bet enough. lol
I don't remember what I was betting but obv it wouldn't have to be much for too much to call for a 2 outer.


Next memorable hand. I limp CO K5ss
6 to flop

A55

bb (loves to bet) leads 20
mp shoves for 40
I call, everyone folds

"I have a 5"
mp says..."figures" in a smart voice. Obv he spikes an Ace on the river.

I have to admit, during game weekends there is money flying around.

And Jose, I only was going after Boston fans! lol

I've come to the conclusion that I've forgotten how to play poker. Or better yet I never really understood how to play in the first place. But **** it, I enjoy the game too much. Next time someone sees me at the table I'm going to be going back to betting non stop and never backing down.

It's too bad I lost my wallet.

I should just stick to that game imo

great weekend for me thursday take 300 out of a charity 1/2 go to a home game take 425 then snap off at tourney friday night for 550 took sat off to play paintball and today to eat and watch baseball hope every one else had a good holiday weekend

P, sounds like you and I have the same thing happen to each other in the last several days. **** sucks, what are yoiu going to do... Jose would say to DRINK MORE!!!

I hope that twoblacknines makes his return from his retirement ITT sooner than later. I am curious how far north he had to move for people to respect his raises.

I believe that's his name, he has a mental breakdown everytime he loses with a set/trips/straight. Throws his cards, knocks over chairs, and goes screaming into the bar. Yah that would be him, haven't seen anyone with such anger issues in awhile.

I'm waiting for him to get 86'd from the place after taking his attacks to far. A drunk kid ended up in our game around 3:30-4am. Thought he was going to be an easy fish but turned out to be an ok player. Anyhow they get involved in a hand where Mr Rage hit trip 8 on the flop and drunk kid made a full house when a Q hit the turn. After all the betting is done Mr Rage says eights full (little boat) kid says queens up and shows his hand queens full of eights. Rage looks at the hand in disgust and says "its queens full you stupid little bitch" I shoot a look at the guy and tell him that's over the line. He apologies, but wow...he's going to blow up on the wrong guy one day and its going to turn ugly.

Game ran til 7am Sunday, I hear it usually breaks around 4am. Around 4:30-5 we were short handed 4-5, bit it was still a pretty good game. I didn't get in the game til around 10:15, but it was pretty glad I stuck around since it was pretty jumping. 5-6 people to a flop, one action player who builds pots, one steamer who calls down to the river to hit any set, and one old man who can't read his hand and consistently misreads the low. This group played til the early morning.

No that's fine. I only mentioned it because I didn't want people to think that meant it was open season to turn this into a pic-fest or anything like that (I'm sure you know what I mean when I say not 4L).

One back from MD. Spent some time with the in-laws and a quick stop in PA to see my aunt.

Hope everyone had a great Easter. I even watched the tigers out there but only listened to the 11th while driving yesterday . It got a little loud in the the van. Lol

Hope to get out this weekend for a tourney.
