How Does Alcohol Effect Your Game? Better or Worse?

sharipov8090 · Apr 16, 2021

If you are resting and you have extra money, then enjoy the game and do not bother-alcohol is for you.Well, if you are serious about the game to extract something useful for yourself, then I strongly advise you not to take alcohol.There are no drunken masters.)

When i drink 2 bottles of vodka, i start thinking and playing much better. But the whole effect comes to naught due to the fact that i start to hit the wrong buttons with my fingers (missclicks) and the winrate drops...

I have never had alcohol while gaming, but there are some examples of people who have and ended up with big losses. For example Ilari Sahamies who had losses close to a million USD in one session just for playing while drinking alcohol

when i drink up to five beers i have no change in consciousness, but then i start to lose patience and giving all inn everywhere, i've already lost a lot for that. I do not advise drinking and playing.

I always avoid drinking while playing online. It affects me a lot lately.
On the other hand, when playing live poker is different. I think is because there are other people to talk to. I don't know. It's just different (unless you're playing cash games)

Last time on my birthday everybody was buying me beers and Bourbon. Was fun, but 3k on the drain...

Never drink when I play. There are enough other activities that involve a good beer. Nice to have one that doesn't.

I think it can help those that are too passive. had my biggest score $576 in $10 PKO game that I entered with a ticket I had won. Although pretty hammered I was focused and could just see the spots to bluff.

It makes me play worse, but with friends, I'll take booze and a smoke to have fun over playing optimally

In my view, it mostly affects you in a worse direction. I’m not one of them, I think it helps in moderation. It’s just my opinion, my experience, it’s changing for everyone

with varying success

Better! I don't drink! So the drinkers play poorly at times! More chips for me

shim36 · Apr 17, 2021

In my personal opinion, drinking tends to make you feel bigger and distracted from your play.

I try not to drink while playing.

mtmigmike · Apr 18, 2021

When I drink alcohol, I start to play more aggressively and therefore lose more often.

danydidi · Apr 18, 2021

A little bit can help you relax and not beiing agressive

Yuliazak1985 · Apr 18, 2021

As for my alcohol use, it rarely happens and only on holidays, birthdays, when we rest with family or friends.
My poker game is also rare.
Therefore, according to probability theory, I played poker in a drunken state, was not and probably never will be.

If you're going to be a pro-player then don't mix alcohol with games. In a free time - you are free to drink anything. Treat a poker as a business, would you drink at your workplace(especially if you rule the company)?

I once played all night in a tournament . Every hour I drank beer and finally took first place . But this is rather an exception to the rule, such a case . I'm usually a bit tipsy and I don't play well

Sergei 9417 · Apr 30, 2021

Hello
Sometimes, to have fun, I drink and for $ 1 I go to a tournament where there are 180 participants and the result does not bother me very much, this is a kind of payment for fun like going to the cinema

Leeyonah96 · Apr 30, 2021

I just drink Coke or water. I never drink alcohol.

sanych · Apr 30, 2021

I don’t drink alcohol when playing poker, it’s bad for the results. Unless you can have fun in the freeroll

woodeng · Apr 30, 2021

I love it when opponents drink . . . As everyone knows it impairs judgement and mental aquity, skills needed to play serious poker . . .

tonymin562 · May 1, 2021

Alcohol makes me play too loose and I make rash decisions.

TriszPoker · May 2, 2021

Well any significant amount of alcohol 99% of the time can only effect cognitive functions and your understanding of poker and your opponents at the table, negatively. I rarely drink or if I do I only drink 0,02-0,05L of whiskey usually, if everyone else is getting drunk so I dont look like a antisocial wannabe-reg moron taking advantage and ruining the party.

danoscar · May 2, 2021

Hello. Alcohol helps me turn a pair of aces into 4 of a kind.....and I still lose. Shucks.

Luvart · May 3, 2021

Alcohol and poker is a recipe for tremendous disaster.

I never never never drink alcohol before/while I'm playing a poker session.

A huge NO!
