Last night, I walked into the MGM Detroit Poker Room at 7:50. They had 3 $1/$2 tables and a $2/$5 table. They also had a list with a few names on it, so I waited.
8:15 $200 – Finally got a seat. I bought in for $200, with $200 in my pocket. There isn't a lot of money on this table. Most of the stacks are between $100-$300. The only big stack (maybe $500) is a young Asian on the other side of the table.
8:30 $186 – Won a nice pot with a set of 3 in the SB. Next hand, I lost an equally nice pot with AQ on the Button. The Asian kid back-raised (limped, then re-raised) after I raised to $7. I called his c-bet on the Flop (K J x), but folded to the Turn bet (K J x K).
9:00 $235 – Stacked off someone with KK in the SB for $81. The money went in preflop. Also, lost $25 with a stab bet on an A-high Flop with KQ, and got raised by the Button. It was stupid to try that this early in a session.
9:30 $632 – Sent three players home with two future "Hands of the Day”.
10:10 $615 – A few new players came to the table, but I'm the Big Stack now. I was planning on staying until 12am, but I'm already up $415. My bankroll has been stuck in Neutral for a few months now. I'm not winning much, and I'm not losing much. Most of these overnight casino junkets have been somewhere between +$200 and -$200. So I decided to cashout, and book a sweet win.
After leaving the Poker Room, I went to the Palette Food Court and got a slice of pizza (paid with comps, of course). I then went back to my free hotel room at Motor City.
