So I'll readily admit that I usually lose most games we play. You'd think being the token mathematician and board game collector/obsesser, that I'd do a bit better. I like to reason it away by saying that I'm always teaching the rules and helping out new players but that only explains about half the games. Like Puerto Rico two nights ago, a game with almost no luck of which I was the only one who had played the game, and I come in last... by a lot.
Last night, with Dominion, it was even more frustrating. Our Romanian friend proceeded to get hosed on Kahlua and started winning. In fact, this is rather common. His luck and skill seem to be inversely proportional to his level of sobriety. Nothing like a drunk, gloating eastern European to make that loss taste even more sour....
Latest Dominion Strategy: Get drunk and be Romanian. GRRRRRR....
