It took two hours last night to get into a game at the Muck, the longest board I've ever seen. Nobody's hit the jackpot yet -- it's up over $261,000 now -- and the dealers said it's been packed like that every day.
We thought about bailing as soon as we got there. Instead we decided to take a pager and walk across the casino to the sushi place. But they wanted to give us a pager too, predicting a 45-minute wait. That seemed too long -- we actually thought we might be in a game by then -- so we passed and went back to the poker room. An hour later we slunked back to the sushi place, but the wait was even longer, so we passed again. Another hour later we got a seat and ordered some table-side dinner.
I played a really good, solid game, nothing too fancy, made a couple of hands, and cashed out a $111 winner.
