4 in 5 poker players use drugs to stay sharp at table

The survey is too broad and exaggerated to be valid or accurate. So if they are saying that caffeine is included, then I can make a statistic saying that 4 out of 5 children under the age of 10 use drugs to stay sharp on the playground.

I love it. LOL

never done drugs, never had a desire too...

using drugs to improve poker performance seems a bit counter intuitive...
if you need rest you need rest
if you are not alert take a break drink coffee

I feel that you must already be burning the candel on both ends to need drugs to stay alert

having said that the rebuy reentry period on acr has to be the longest I've ever seen and makes it counter productive to even start playing

a little beer and a movie on my cell helps with live play
but it always depends on my base mood

caffeine which seems to be the safest can have a harsh climb down that can definitely affect decision making,
I find a little beer tunes out the distracting side thoughts and can allow you to focus but its easy to get the fine line wrong between a little and alot

It really is very difficult to keep your concentration in a few moments.
More to this day I have never used drugs to play.

I've never used drugs in my life to play poker or for anything else, but I do believe in this thread.

Caffeine is a very effective, safe, cheap and available drug.

It is a very serious drug if overused and like anything else it should be respected.

Cafe
Tea
R. Bull
Chocolate covered espresso beans...lol

Good luck !

I don't know if this stats is reliable.
But it's not bad to exercise the other mind hemisphere sometimes.

Yes There is such seen streamers even in the camera, my opinion on this account is-if a person starts to use drugs comes a moment when he without them can not do and spending money from the beginning on poker and drugs in the aftermath he will spend only on drugs , maybe if 4 out of 5 Take that then three will become drug addicts
