Alcohol while playing?

drinking alcohol while playing its good only for freeroll because then all hand are monsters and play to the end and see that you loose

always NOT a good idea!

not thinking the same cool head

certainly not.
Alcohol gives you more confidence bad.I think that you have to play up

!

Sometimes alcohol helps in the game)

Yesterday I drank well and got the prize in the tournament at the 5k people

alcohol usually helps me play but I avoid it because starts to become a necessity and play worse with bad anxiety when I attempt to play again sober.

I used to get wasted before/during live tournaments and generally did quite well... It would get under people's skin that I was drunk and they'd try to eliminate me... Either because they thought my judgement would be impaired or to them I was obnoxious and annoying... This generally worked in my favour..

I don't use this tactic anymore but will still always have a drink or two when playing live..

I never drink when playing online.

I drink a lot when i play in live games..It doesn`t turn out well. I cant count on two hands how many times ive had a massive stack in tournaments, and then its all gone when the alcohol hits my head for real.

Online i normally self exclude myself when i go out for drinks. Previously i have donked away tons at cash tables when drunk.

I have learned my lessons the hard way.

at home it is often good to do to relax and kill some nervousness and adrenaline producing some hands, but we must not make the mistake of intoxicate sure lose the entire stack

Moderation

I have found I'm a social drinker so in a live situation a little cant hurt, but then you do rent it and who wants to have to get up from table to recycle those Bacardi's?

never, if it can aggravate to lose the situation and come out on the bottom. IMHO

when playing for fun its ok but when playing for you rent its a big no no, maybe if your only on the 1-2 no limit and having fun i say go for it...

This is not a game but a solid tilt when I'm drunk

I like having a couple of drinks when i'm playing live poker. it make people think that you have no ideea what your doing and it take some of the edge of.

Dejane of course, alcohol is very very important during the game. It helps you to relax and it helps you to faster come i to the zone. Whiskey is what I prefer the most.

For some reason I am always better at two things when I have been drinking.. Billiards and Poker.

I think it helps me to get in the zone and not over-analyze certain details.

drink alcohol isn't a good idea, because you might not think clear, maybe one or two its ok, but more I don't think

Always but slowly. I'm always so into the game I forget about it. Home games I drink like crazy live casino games just a little.

3-4 beers, everything more than that is not good for me and my play(callin some hand which i shouldnt, playing out of position ,rising, bluffin...).In mine opinion better to take some coffe, soda or some juice...

yeah in very much

I think this is just fine Friday evening after a hard working week to spend time in poker for a beer or a glass of whiskey bun

Sometimes is a good idea lol

if you drink alcohol, you are not the master of your chips)

Alcohol and poker is just a no. Keep your head clear and with the winnings and once you win and can celebrate get absolutely paralytic and a club/bar/pub
