Only problem with drinking beer while you are playing poker is this. Just when you have a good hand and waiting for a few players who are slow playing is the very time that you get that sudden urge to have to run to the bathroom for a whiz. Then by the time you get back to the computer your hand has folded and you realize that you actually had the winning hand if only you could have held on.

Man.. I always take a couple just before the tournament begins when in live poker. It helps me to calm down a bit.. use the same strategy for important bocce ball games..

But the secret is not going beyond those 2 cups of it.. otherwise it brings my game down with my anxiety hahaha

When I play poker, I tend to play better when I have a cupple of beers..:) I think it's because I guts a bit more:D any thoughts?
Well, I congratulate you in my case it's different, I must be totally lucid to be able to be very focused, but that's good that you enjoy it big, besides I think that a few will not dislike anyone, good luck my friend

I never drink beer or any alcohol beverage when I play poker. Don't really think it's a good idea. But maybe for some people one beer or a couple of them can be helpful. After all, one drink can loosen you up and help you relax.

Alcohol in moderate amounts helps you gain more courage if you are a player who is afraid to play more aggressively.

maybe it makes you have better guts but it makes you less right, less objective and more permissive, be careful playing while drinking alcohol, I think it's not compatible, that's why drinking is encouraged in casinos.

If we play freeroll tournaments it is really hard to earn free monwy if you spend all money on the beers so I better drink normal water because it is much more healthy and I need to lose some of the kg.

Hello😉 To drink or not to drink, everyone's decision, when I play more for recreation and not for profit, I can afford to drink😉

if it's recreational I think it's worth more if it's regular, I don't recommend it.

Maybe this weekend I'll try it, I'll play with 2 beers on top and I'll let you know if something interesting happens 😁

If 1-2 cans of beer makes you feel more relaxed, then it's a good concept :)
But in general, I prefer to play sober, because sometimes alcohol can lead to serious losses.

Hi,
When I play poker for fun I indeed like to have a couple of beers and have fun with my friends.
But when it is online, and it is for winning, I can't afford being drunk, even a little.

I think poker should be played with a sober head! Definitely not with beer

Yes, beer can add courage, but it can also ruin if there is a lot of it. 🥴 Everything needs to be done in moderation. I prefer to make sober decisions.

You have to be careful with beer. Beer greatly expands the ranges)) It was tested. It makes you want to play every hand. o_O:D

There are studies that suggest that if you drink a very small quantity of alcohol (less than 1 pint of beer) your focus capacity will increase. Also if you go beyond that you concentration will drop dramatically. I advise to drink while playing poker only if you do both of them just for fun :)
