    Hmmm...his victory photo of him sandwiched between two bros makes me think that he definitely didn't win with a straight.

    I've seen enough cop shows to know that "straight flush" means something different on an average night in Detroit. #worldseriesofpoker

    I had some beginner's luck of my own around that age. At least that's what Bev, the woman I lost my virginity to, meant by saying "That was the fastest any of you boys have ever finished."

    [Sigh] I miss her pouch.

    They were unable to get shot of the guy wearing a Denny McLain jersey, as he had already been dragged out back to have his foot broken by the mob.

    Later in the night, reader Ward spotted a man in a Cincinnati Rockers jersey, circa 1992, who was busy cadging leftover dregs of tepid Bud Lights from busy blackjack tables while searching the dirty carpet for $2 slot-machine tokens and reusable cigarette butts that he could then sell to desperate conventioneers who'd just bet on a maiden from Des Moines and lost to a hooker from Reno. Reader Ward then collected $28.50 from Antoine Walker, who, losing his own shirt, had bet that the Rockers jersey read "Shlichter" when in fact it read "Schlichter." #peterose

    @JohnnyDakotaStateU: Well, it was either the Cincinnati Rockers or the Detroit Drive (1990-91), so of course I chose the more famous of the two. #peterose

    Add anyone receiving 17.5 points and taking Indiana at Iowa to the list of bad beats. Indiana up 10 going into the 4th, Iowa wins and covers. #badbeats

    @TomahawkFlop:

    Also had Indiana getting 17.5. If Indiana just tackles him on 3rd and 1 from the 27 with just over a minute left still would get the cover. Iowa would've just kneeled out the clock. Also had New Mexico St. getting 44 from Ohio St., lose 45-0 and Tulane getting 36.5 from LSU, lose 42-0 as LSU drives 98 yards in the last 6 minutes of the game to score a TD with about a minute left. #badbeats
