It happens. That's OK. No one likes to eat only pizza. Sometimes you just want fruit, sometimes only meat.

Every once in a while I mix beer and poker but I try not to mix getting drunk and playing poker because that usually spells disaster.

I drink a lot of green tea. It soothes and tones; for some reason, coffee causes aggression, therefore, only tea.

I do not drink that much to start with, but at home games with friends, yes drink is involved. On line never, no point, I just play. At the casino I may one drink to start the game. One time ordered a Jack and coke when the game first started, then asked the waitress to only bring coke when ever I asked for another. I wanted to give the other players the impression I was drinking. It did work as they thought I must be getting drunk later in the game and tried to bluff. Hard to explain, but I played along. Up about 500 that night, only one player smiled when I asked for my bill and the waitress said coke is on the house. Try it sometime.

There are games where I need a good drink to stop my blood from boiling when I crash out of a tournament to a all in bingo player.

It is not a good advice to drink when you are playing, I personally drink a cold beer if it is very hot in my city and I am playing, but I only drink one.

When i drink and play, i drastically overestimate my abilities. This overconfidence is a quick recipe for failure.

The alcohol only drinks in the live game - because I play there for fun :). In the online game I play for money so I drink only green tea :D

poker alcohol

I sometimes drink insignificantly when the amount of alcohol I drink has no effect on my game negatively. It’s not important that I play live with friends, in a restaurant or online. Sometimes, it seems to me that a small dose of alcohol as beer, wine or ****tail with vodka, on the contrary , relieves some tension, excessive fear, stiffness and physical fatigue. That is important if you play often, for example, every day not to get involved in the use of alcoholic beverages. Otherwise it will be a relationship that will negatively affect your health. After all, who needs money when there is no health. And another important point is that the dose of the drink to be taken should be small.


Otherwise, depending on your psychological type, character and temperament, you will be too aggressive in the game. Or, on the contrary, you will be increasingly inclined to a cautious, tight game. And maybe worse, just very sharply incline to sleep and relaxation I had an acquaintance who played a very important tournament with an entrance of $ 5. And after a hard day he allowed himself a little extra alcohol and did not notice how he fell asleep. At that time he fell asleep sitting in his chair when about a dozen people remained before entering the prize money and he had the stack was above average. It played a little less than a thousand people, and when he woke up, he had 3-4 big blinds.He put out his bank on two sevens and lost, of course, a slightly older pair. As a result, he got into the smallest first prizes, not even playing and slept for about an hour. far not often. So do not forget to take into account all the important aspects of the influence of alcohol not only on your game, but also on you personally))))) good luck to all !!!

When you play real money never drink. It has happened, however, sat drinking with virtual money. Frankly my game is different but fun take me strange decisions sometimes losers sometimes profitable. To be honest so I learned when I can bluff.:D:D

I do not advise. Maybe just a little for courage.

Not drink and do not recommend drinking while playing the way any drugs the mind have to be clean and the lowest stress possible to have a good game so the sport requires discipline and fitness to stand for hours in tournament games or even even cash games
Water intake and fruits make their raciocionio and its internal physiology work better

Negative effects will always vary based on individual genetic and behavioural predisposition. It can certainly help with the real or supposed illusion of fear and bravery. Table image of a drunkard is also captivating in moderation.

Drink a little and ease your nerves. Drink too much and you soon will be asking yourself "Why?"


Has anyone considered losing to be fun?

For many, poker is not a game, but a job. but at work you can not drink.
it hurts any business, especially such as poker.
if you do not respect your money and time and work, then drink and do not be shy.[emoji3][emoji3][emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]

I only drink during poker with good friends at my place or my friend's place. But never if it's a serious game. Some game can be really long, you need all your mental skills.. if you want to win. Spirit is too strong if you play many hours.
If you drink beer , you have to go at the toilet to ofently... The must for me is red wine.. 🍷 perfect , you can stay peace.. take your time, no stress. ;)

All depends of peoples and situations.
I like to drink wine during online poker. Afterwork :)

If anything I would be drinking coffee. You want your mind to be sharp, not slowed.

I drank a couple of times playing and not being used to drinking, got out of my decisions and thus my game. Two or three times was enough to understand that I should not drink while playing.
