The wives planned a ladies night out, so Jeff, Sam and I wasted no time in putting our own revelries in motion… namely, 3 hours of 4-8 limit hold’em poker at Club Hollywood Casino, followed by a quick stop at Brouwer’s Cafe and Six Arms.
Regarding poker, I continue to be amazed at how poorly the majority of people play the game — biggest faults of most people are playing poor starting hands, chasing draws, playing middle pairs, and betting passively — when you combine all four, it makes for a costly evening (depending on which side of the coin you’re playing).
All in all, a great evening — and, for local players, Club Hollywood’s poker tables are far superior to the Drift on Inn, assuming they have players. The smoke was 90% less (only because of improved ventilation, I think) and they’ve got the large tv’s, etc. However, when we got there at 8:40pm or so, no one was playing — it didn’t take us long to attract a full table, but I’d bet that the Drift on Inn probably had 2-3 full tables the entire time.
