I drink coffee with sweets, on holidays beer with fish or chips, it helps to relax and enjoy the game

I eat when I play. It doesn't bother me about anything.

Before a poker game, always a light dinner, after tournaments, tea with a roll with butter.

if I stay in the tournament for a long time, then they are during poker or during a 5-minute break, it's good that there is a break

Playing MTTs it is unlikely not to eat during the games, since the break is usually small and the game lasts for many hours, I recommend considering what you eat, fast food and other junk while you spend your days sitting playing, it will not do you any good for health in any way.

I also don't usually eat during sessions, I usually just drink coffee, because I get tired [More] depending on what I eat. (But, if it really is a very long session, maybe something "practical")

theoretically 1 if you play short tournaments you have nothing to worry about food and 2 if they are long tournaments eat or at least you have something at hand.I personally make sure before

I don't know about you but, I can't eat before or while I'm playing it makes me uncomfortable.
from what I've read it's a bad idea not to. Thoughts?
I often eat while playing. I don't feel any discomfort. If I'm hungry I usually start rushing and that leads to mistakes. That's why I don't play hungry :)

I usually try not to get distracted while playing, but that doesn't apply to food. I can easily play and eat at the same time. But playing and cooking at the same time is more difficult, but also possible :)

I have nothing to do with playing poker with eating:rolleyes: Of course, I can drink coffee before the night tournament so that I don’t feel like sleeping. But I don't limit myself in food;)

Yes. You can't play when you're hungry.

I try to be the best version of myself in playing poker. So all aspects to be well prepared for a good run i hope to do before a grind. So i try to eat a little to be not hungry but not to much that i get lazy and tired. In the break i eat some fruit or some bread. Any tipps for eating in a long tourney grind?

Before, during and after...
If you don't play on multiple tables, you just go to tournaments, for example, then it's quite easy to do everything else while playing.
