I think poker is a sport, so there´s no sense in playing while smoking in live events. But also in online playing, then it depends on the player if he/she likes to, so let it be.

When you are playing online poker you can do whatever it is that 'floats your boat' because you are by yourself. Playing live poker is something different altogether because you have to be conscious of the players around you so you shouldn't do anything that will offend or possibly cause injury or harm to others. So no smoking at the live tables.

I recently quit smoking but I used to chain smoke while I played.

Do you believe we should be able to smoke cigarettes while we play, or do you like the non smoking trend?

Cigarettes are addictive and give momentary pleasure, they are complicated. But it takes away your health and mental capacity.
I suggest you never smoke.:D

By international poker law, smoking is prohibited in any live gaming room. I don't know if this answers your question.

For me, there is only poker. I do not smoke and I advise everyone not to smoke, it is very harmful to your health

i find its odd to have a smoke in any kind of public indoor activity , if i do light up - i feel being kind of rude even when its allowed

lol oh how society changes

it's up to everyone to smoke or not to smoke. just Smoking distracts from the game and prevents you from concentrating if you seriously decided to show the best game.

I am a smoker and I smoke while I am playing but I dont think there is any link between these two things

Does smoking pot or cig's have anything to do with poker? It comes down to this do you care more about smoking weed or tobacco than you people your playing with! Should we be able to draw up lines of cocaine on the table in-between hands?

Smoking is a huge harm to health and not only yours! I am glad that more and more places limit smokers!

Pretty much any poker room I have ever been in does not allow it in the room, you must get up and go outside the room to smoke. As a smoker I have no issue with this, I try to respect others who do not like the smell or smoke in their faces. Even as a smoker I probaly would not enjoy sitting at a poker table that allowed smoking.

No Smoke

I don't smoke, so I don't have that combination.
That if, when I sit down to play you cannot miss the mate, well Argentine.
He who does not know what it is, I tell you that it is an infusion with herbs, similar to tea, but without a filter;)

I quit cigarettes years ago, and now like to vape when I play poker, the two go together very well! I still think about the good old days at Casino Rama smoking, drinking and playing the slots.. Those were the days!
