We checked in around 12:45-ish and got a seat immediately at a $1-2, $100-max. That was my first mistake. (I'll post on the CPMG board about this sometime soon...how you just cant win with a table full of inexperienced players.) They opened a new table and sat me, Tina, Colin, and Matt G at the same table. Matt went and found himself another seat somewhere else.
As soon as I sit down, I cant miss. I'm flopping sets, straights, boats, and within an hour I'm up well over $200. I'm making big raises with decent cards, narrowing the field, and generally playing well. Then comes the cooler. Someone to my right makes it $7 to go, it folds to me, and I make it $20 even with 10-10. Guy to my left calls, original raiser folds. Flop comes 9-4-2 rainbow. I make a pot-sized bet and the caller min-raises. I look at his stack, see that he's got about $55 left, and push, putting him on A-9. He calls and flips over 9-4 off for top 2...I dont catch, NH sir. I ask him why he called $20 cold with the 9-4. His reply: "It's my daughter's birthday". Unreal. I hope his daughter gets cancer. I did have to ask him though...April 9th, or Sept 4th? It was Sept.
There was another guy that moved from across the table that moved next to me and started talking my ear off. You know the guy, there's 1 in every crowd. Wants to talk about every single hand, including the hands he folded that would have been monsters. I make a raise preflop with KK, he whines that I'm making him fold "his favorite junk hand". Flop was 10-7-2, so I bet and take it down. The guy next to me is going nuts. "I folded 7-2!! Waaahhh!!" That's your favorite junk hand? WTF? What kind of moron are you?
So then I get my top 2 cracked against a flopped straight, call an all-in when I knew the guy caught his hand, and chased a few hands with a shitload of outs, none of which were any good. Final damage: down $240 after getting over $100 back in blackjack. So ends my string of luck at Greektown. One thing I have promised myself, after losing at the lowest stakes in a casino for like 4 straight visits...I'll never play the lowest stake in a casino again. There are simply too many donks.
