Went to MGM National Harbor yesterday, played 1/3 NL for about 9 hours. I read this entire thread (been a lurker on 2+2 forever) before going as I had a lot of free time while sick and out of work. As such I got $900 in reds and was ready to fire 3 buyins at 1/3 without having to wait to get chips and have to deal with any chip runners. My first orbit I made 2 sets and top 2 pair, and manged to lose about $500 when they made flushes. Without going to my third bullet, I ran the last $100 up in a rollercoaster throughout the day and cashed out with $1802 this evening plus another $300 that I had exchanged with someone who came to the table in the evening for the chips that were in my bag. I didn't think to take a
picture until I racked up.
Regarding some of the comments I've read earlier in the thread:
1. Parking - Jesus Christ. Got there at around 2 or 3pm, the doors to the elevators were locked, and the signs are completely useless. Got the poker room after about 15 minutes of confusion.
2. Dealers - I had no issues with them. Had one that you could definitely tell was new and was slow at seeing who had the best hand at showdown, but was methodical and made no errors.
3. Food/Drink Service - The service was good during the day. In the evening I waited about 60-90 minutes for a mixed drink. The stromboli I ordered was... palatable... at least it got there fast?
