Best drugs to take while playing poker

Adderall XR, also known as methamphetamine. Orally of course...

I've actually wondered about drug testing and professional poker players.

Performance, endurance, calm-those-jittery-hand drugs... But figured testing would never happen cause the casinos are handing out the drinks.

But if it were to be considered a sport, and not played in casinos--ok, ok, you can blame it on the vicoden.

Caffeine and taurine (ingredient in most energy drinks) will help you pay attention at first, but you'll crash after a few hours. They may also affect your patience and can cause tremors if you have too much.

Adderall is probably the most effective, but it requires a prescription and it's not indicated for playing poker.

Edit: Adderall is not methamphetamine. It is an amphetamine/dextroamphetamine combination similar to methamphetamine. Meth is stronger (more effective), but also more dangerous... gotta take the good with the bad. Both are prescription but methamphetamine is not prescribed very much anymore due to safety. Adderall (or similar) is used instead.

I think Phil Laak needs some Adderall...

I don't mean to advocate drug usage, but I have played a few tourney's on adderall and I don't think my reads or level of concentration has ever been that high. It was amazing while I played, but it is worth mentioning I stayed up for over 36 hours on it, and that wasn't fun. But as far as the mary jane goes, I don't think its that bad of an influence.

My first post ever

But porn is never a good idea!!!!!!

I can concentrate fine while stoned and playing, hardly distracting, honestly I find it more difficult to grind a 5-6 hour session of poker without weed.

If you think you're a fiend when it comes to cigarettes, come over and play with me. And bring me some Monsters!

LMAO, Wow! It's like the Jack of spades just crawled out of my computer and said,"Hey man wanna see your neighbors whole cards." ....And then I knew I was high when I started to taste colors.

You could function, however, focusing is out of the question.

I actually agree, I bet alot of money that the people who are saying poker on weed is bad have never really tried it. I play pretty much the same both ways, infact I find my results better when high than sober. Just a thought!

Rethinking the alcohol thing after the loss I had last night. Started off with a double burbon and moved on to B52s. I think I am better off letting someone else encourge others to drink.

Wasn't drunk, but I think I will blame my losses on it. I'll have to conduct an experiment and see if I play better while drinking of without. It takes what 100 samples to make a viable survey, so I'm not so sure I want to try that experiment.

Think I'll stick to chocolate milk...

I like to boot a little heroin to relax, then refocus with a jolt of cocaine.

And some wrist slashing to top it off?

Viagra. It helps my pocket pair stand up when I'm all-in.

i can't believe this is still a thread

Your good hands get paid off right

im with you there bro joint and cuppa strong coffee ... and im good to play for hours!

When I can see my reflection on the monitor i get that quick rush that the ladies must get so by definintion i guess i'm taking drugs.......
