I don't drink, the strongest drink I drink is soda, carbonated water, juice and milk

Sometimes I like to drink beer when I play poker, that makes me play better.

No, I don't drink alcohol when I play poker. Playing poker requires maximum concentration and a cool head

Only when playing bottom stakes 40 cent buy in with .02/.04 blinds. Players are so stupid it takes a bit to play at their level ( & I haven't been able to drink that much).

Do you drink alcohol when you play poker and if so what's your poison?
Hi :)
I don't drink alcohol while playing. I don't drink alcohol at all for many years. I prefer tea or coffee. Alcohol is poison, so I don't recommend it :)

Very rarely I can afford no more than 2 cans of lager. But it happens no more than 2-3 times in a month, and that only in evening poker tournaments. And I haven't drunk any other kind of alcohol (except champagne on New Year) for more than 5-7 years. :oops:

I rarely do it. As I play poker just for fun, I don't see any problem in it. Just one or two cans of beer.

One cup of beer is OK, the next is too much.

My favorite drink while playing is beer. I almost always drink beer during the game, but sometimes, if there is no beer, I have to drink tea.

I do drink when I play poker especially live but most people would be surprised to know what I drink. I tend to drink chocolate milk when I play poker live. The reason why is quite simple it keeps me from getting dehydrated but the milk actually allows you to play longer without getting hungry and the one thing that's very distracting to me is when I get hungry. How to be honest I started doing this probably about 10-12 years ago when I was playing in a tournament at Foxwoods casino. When they came around to ask what people wanted the guy ordered chocolate milk and I ordered the same thing and I'm like can't believe you got any chocolate milk and he told me why he did it and I've been doing it ever since because he was right nothing worse then getting really hungry and distracted when you're playing. Even when playing at the world series of poker in the Rio what was I drinking chocolate milk. Now they give you all the laugh if I'm on the edge of being knocked out or it's turn it's over I like to have a tequila sunrise go figure that one out.

I do not prefer to devote all my thinking and focus to playing. I do not occupy myself with anything that might distract my focus

I don't usually drink anything alcoholic while playing, I like to drink a soft drink or water.

I basically never drink alcohol in general so I also don't drink when I play poker.

Had some pretty bad tilt sessions in the past when being drunk.
