I had a few drinks and played stressed poker, does alcohol affect you?

[Kinganders]

I alwayas try to avoid it when playing, lost huge amounts on cash games because of alcohol and I believe its difficult to maintain a high level of consistency when playing intoxicated

 

[Skripka Dmitriy]

It affects me, but the main thing is not to overdo it. If I'm a little drunk, then I stop worrying about which card will come on the last boards.

 

[telespf]

I think that if you drink very much, it harms all in your life. But if you drink a little in the table, of form that you can have control about all the table, it´s can to be good for your relax.

 

[Pibo1797]

Yes a had played drunk a few times and i had Lost Money hy Bad calls

Ask Scotty Nguyen.

 

[Lolocomondo]

Of course it affects us, all the human beings. I would recommend you to not play while drinking or being drunk, it doesn't help you make the best possible decision and it influences your concentration.

 

[ringworm]

When I drink, I play super loose and bluff way, way, way too much. Which almost always results in a loss. Because of this, I only play for penny stakes when I drink.

 

[makisaa]

Drinks really affect your body, your mind and your reactions, so it is natural to have problems in the games. I don't drink while playing or before the games!

 

[pltelles]

I see poker as a job. Soon you can't work drinking.

 

[demibar]

I am playing with less stress . Yes most of the times not really good when i had more alcohol than i should.

Dear friend, you are very right to mention this point, even now for me that I have a job but more than a sport it becomes part of my life, a day without playing poker is like a day without meaning, the love we have for this game It is something that would not be equaled to gambling, if not because we have limits of which more is the pleasure that gives us a good play well done

Alcohol itself has not bothered anyone yet. It is important to guess with the dose. It makes no sense to drink a little, you drink a lot more you lose. uke:

 

[Rockyfour]

Drinking Alcohol in general is a very bad idea I think. Newer studies have shown it is probably more damaging than crystal meth to your body and mind.

Also it causes cancer and is extremely addicting.

 

[lanelane]

I agree with those who write that alcohol bothers a person in their game, but it doesn’t matter how much you drink.
I haven’t drunk enough for years to be limited in anything.

 

[uri73796]

If someone has a professional attitude to poker then refuses alcoholic beverages

 

[Geksan_87]

Of course, any alcoholic drink negatively affects the game, it dulls the senses, so I think professional players do not drink alcohol when participating in tournaments, when playing in TV shows, I think they can afford a bakalchik of beer, since in this case it is not so much the result that is important, but simply the creation of a good show.

 

[denissaangerami]

Well, the truth does not affect me, on the contrary, I think it relaxes me, but despite this, I do not like to drink alcoholic beverages and play poker, well I think, it makes me a little more anxious, and I can make bad decisions.

 

[manzanillo53]

I think it effects everyone, but I never drink during a high stakes game. Maybe one drink in smaller game and a 3 or 4 if playing at a home game with friends. My drink consumption if just going out is four, after that I just feel sick not drunk, so I an not the best person to comment on this.

 

[INISHTE]

Interesting.

I haven't tried it, but I think that if I do it, it will do very well for me, I am a passive player, being a little aggressive, it might do me good.

 

[LukasynoACAB]

I played many times after few drinks and IT was good runs , more risky but iam passive player and not to often Play aggresive as after drinks but i really prefer to Play and drink some things :-D

 

[casique31]

Alcohol in any discipline or sport is not a good ally, in my personal case I have some goals to meet such as quitting smoking, zero alcohol, seeking a balanced and healthy diet, all this thinking about improving my game. When I achieve all this I will tell you if it has really helped me in my career to success.:deal::deal:

 

[eniseysmail]

I do not drink alcohol while playing, and I also do not sit down to play while drunk. Firstly, it significantly relaxes and lulls me terribly from the monotony of the game. Secondly, it is very conducive to reckless behavior in the game. You start to believe in your super-links and knowledge in poker, and from this you make a huge number of erroneous decisions. Therefore, I cannot recommend the relationship between alcohol and poker.

 

[GARCIA PABLO DANIEL]

hello

You should not play poker drinking alcohol. You lose many perceptions of the game, lucidity is essential to have an optimal criteria.
