Some better play poker when sober, as they say without a flask can not do. Others play sober better, because the combinations are better visible. And in what condition do you play poker better - drunk or sober?)

Practically no-one on the face of the earth will play "better" drunk, with perhaps the exceptions of medically defined alcoholics (for physiological reasons) and a few outliers like Scotty Nguyen... :p

🍺🍹🍺🍹🍺🍹🍺🍹🍺🍸:cool:

~EDiT:- With that being said it's still likely they would be better players if capable of playing sober.

Without a doubt, you should play sober. A drunk makes rash decisions. And even if luck sometimes helps, then at the distance there will only be a loss.

Sober what a question! Poker is played as lucidly as possible otherwise you are going to give away your money.

Well, considering that by paying attention to your plays your chance increases, it doesn't seem like a good idea, but I have to admit I've never taken the test, so... :unsure: Okay, sober.

Well actually neither. Not drunk, not totally sober, but just trying to maintain a relaxed, comfortable level.

I am always sober. I stick with juice, water or tea when I play, online and with friends as well. It helps me staying focused.

I clearly play when I'm sober, because if you're drunk I'm certainly going to do something I'm going to get out wrong!

there is shit where poker is declared a sport, I think your question immediately casts doubt on their statement
