Poker must be played carefully! And alcohol relaxes and dulls vigilance

Alcohol is useful for tight players to become more liberated. But in general, at a low limit, it's fun to play in this state.

In general, I am sharply negative about alcohol during my game. But I heard that somehow Scotty Nguyen won a bracelet while binge drunk.

When I play I like to smoke and drink alcohol, I feel like I play better that way, sometimes I have won tournaments when I'm drunk.

Poker and alcohol don't go well together.

It is always a bad decision, it is a bad mix since alcohol removes inhibitors and everything that makes you be alert not to overdo the bet or opening, you will lose it if you are drinking, everything becomes less strict and your strategies can be affected given the change in behavior that is generated in you by drinking

This is not the first time I see the topic of the relationship between alcohol and poker being raised ))) This means that for some players the nervous system cannot withstand restraint in the game. As for me, this is not a positive combination, since I think that after taking alcohol during the game, the understanding of the process itself becomes confused, the concentration of attention drops.

I don't drink whilst playing poker ;) If you're looking to make money and not just gamble, I think that's a serious mistake. But I love to play against drunk players :)

No, I don't think so. At least I don't drink alcohol when I play as alcohol takes away my focus of the game. I stick with water, Coffee or tea at home or with juice or Coke with friends.

used to . not anymore. I don't see how starving the brain of oxygen could possibly lead to better decisions at the poker table

I’ve never really paid close attention, but I think it depends a lot on the amount. When I drink too much, it definitely makes things worse. But if I drink just the right amount, it might even help a bit — though I’m not entirely sure.

Small amounts of alcohol helps relaxing and not overthinking every move.
