Do not play drunk.

Davydave · Jun 3, 2017

Agreed. Alcohol can give you a false sense of bravado. This goes for any gambling, have a drink or two when it's over.

2NaCl · Jun 3, 2017

I think it's common sense that you will not play proper poker under the effect of alcohol but then again if someones going out for a night of fun he will have his couple of beers here and there it's just unavoidable. Personally I don't drink alcohol, I find it disgusting, useless and unhealthy. Keep away from unhealthy habits people!

kjkkkkk really, don't play drunk!

Odysseus101 · Jun 3, 2017

I play regularly with friends for low stakes while drinking. It's fun, I make stupid mistakes and laugh at others when they do the same.

Of course, if I lose then I don't complain. That's part of the entertainment value, including bragging rights into the future: Dude, remembered when I was drunk and called your all in on my suited 8 and 9? Epic fail! But I was close!"

Drinking will impair every decision you make while gambling.

Like for instance hey I have 10,2 suited I can call 3X BB raise with it and definitely win.

The 10ft tall and bullet proof will apply to playing poker as well and can lose you boatloads of cash

vitorbonatto · Jun 3, 2017

depends on the circumstances, if you're playing with friends or in a low stake tourney i think its ok

whiskers77 · Jun 3, 2017

If I drink, I just play the freerolls. When i spend my own money, i don't drink.

Syltan · Jun 3, 2017

Alcholol and money on account poker player things are not compatible. Isolated cases when you need to remove the jitters before or during the first live game

Lopeszilla · Jun 3, 2017

In my opinion I play just as good weather drinking or not

Pinokio_385 · Jun 3, 2017

When I'm drunk I'm a winner!

lcid86 · Jun 3, 2017

Generally, it's a losing proposition. however, I've seen some lucky drunks play, and win, with junk.

vinnie · Jun 3, 2017

I am drunk right now. Really tempted to play. But, I know better. Instead, I will be on here for a while.

I sometimes play drunk, but only in homegames.

alienat3d · Jun 3, 2017

That's a nice topic tho. Well drinking at playing poker is OKAY for me, IF i am playing only freerolls or some really cheap games, which doesn't really bother my bankroll if i loose. So it's kind of entertainment then. But i would recommend to nobody to play your usual limit, if you did already drunk some. You are simply not able playing your A-game, even if you think you can. So don't fool yourself!
By the way, i know that in Russia they have a proverb: "The Fools and the Hard Drinkers are get lucky!" Seems to be legit at many points at poker...LOL.

RidersFan · Jun 3, 2017

The last live tournament I played I finished 5th. I went out before with friends for drinks and after drinks went for dinner with my brother and really started drinking. During the tournament I drank the whole time and didn't make any bad decisions. I watch other people who weren't drinking make bad folds. Eg) utg shoves for 8.5 bbs and bb open folds 44. If you drink when you play most of the time then it doesn't affect your game that much. If you occasionally drink when you play then it will affect your game more. Also your tolerance to alcohol is a factor.

andyt5303 · Jun 3, 2017

Playing drunk is not something I would advise to anyone who wants to win, however if you're just having a good time then sure drink away!

orchidra · Jun 4, 2017

I’m not having much luck playing poker when sober, so I wonder if I should try playing when drunk.

I have a question to those who think alcohol helps. How many cans of Draught Guinness do you recommend I drink before a tournament starts and how often during the tournament. Say the tournament last about six hours.

No1eJoker · Jun 4, 2017

I've played drunk a couple of times and I've more risking and have had a lot of luck, I had more courage to call on some cards and I realized very good results.

poliaris747 · Jun 4, 2017

I completely agree! I also have a game experience when I drank too much! The result is similar to yours, the loss of all money!

Brazenly · Jun 4, 2017

I ve won quite a lot money drunk

WOLF55555 · Jun 4, 2017

I think that while playing poker one should not drink. Since alcohol has a bad effect on the game. Commit more mistakes, lose money.

ds276 · Jun 4, 2017

You can relax a little, the main thing is not to overdo it. And that in the morning it is possible to be strongly disappointed and to do even more nonsenses, trying to recoup. If I start to blunt - I usually stop playing.

Find out how much you can drink without going bad, and always stay within this limit!

I agree. One time I was playing drunk and people were calling me thinking i was too drunk, but I always had the goods!!

ChronicFish · Jun 5, 2017

LMAO i can relate to this NEVER play drunk even if you establish a healthy stack horrible choices will follow hah

GRANDPAPA929 · Jun 6, 2017

I played the last two days, along with whiskey and did not get good result. Don't play with whiskey. In this condition you will beat any donkey.

sanych · Jun 6, 2017

Alcohol extends the spectra of the hands))
