Hi.
Obviously, alcohol during the game will interfere with your concentration and no doubt increases the likelihood of making wrong decisions.
Good luck.

i learned a valuable lesson about drinking and playing poker..

i was playing 1/2 NL , bought in with $200 (min $100, max $300)

running pure, ran the stack up to $1800 (plus $500 high hand bonus) so $2300 (was sober as a duck.. started drinking after i ran up my stack)

ended up cashing out $1300 .. lost about a grand in less than an hour

dont drink and play!!

Sometimes I don't mind a glass of wine when I'm playing online in the evening. It helps me relax a little. Obviously drinking the whole bottle is not recommended :)

When we drink alcohol, we open not which faces that eventually lead to a loss.Alcohol is relaxing and intoxicating.you lose concentration and make unthought-of moves.Keep yourself in hand by sitting down to play and not a drop of alcohol.

Hello.
I do not see any point in playing drunk. Obviously, in this state, your chances of losing money are significantly increased.

A few drinks can be ok but not to the extend, drinking during a session will be the same as drinking and driving. I've learnth by loosing my bankroll. And tilt will get you cause you just want to win and win which is wrong. GL.

More you drink the player you bet or better you seem to do. Sure everyone drives better after just a few drinks.

I can drink beer if the game dragged on for a long time. Or if it's a game with friend, then I can drink strong alcocol.

Beware of alcohol and poker. I lie to you if I tell you that I don't like to drink when I play. If you do it moderately and can control your emotions and thoughts, everything will be fine. Otherwise, stay away from alcohol when you decide to play. (applicable to any type of game).
Greetings.

I think that if you are serious about poker, you should not combine drinking and playing.

Certainly alcoholic drink affects players' decisions.
You can be sure that many players have already done so, for sure many do not mix this anymore
alcohol plus poker (dangerous mix).

It's usually not a great idea to drink when playing. If I'm playing lower stakes or a home game with buddies I don't mind. Anything for substantial $ I will not drink at all.

Id Say :O) even no drinks will stress your mind. Playing poker is like that, mixing that with to many drinks probably wont work out for no one :O) Good luck out there and keep grinding.

Poker and alcohol are like water and oil.I had a bad experience that devastated my cash desk in a couple of hours.So when you are drunk, do not play poker)

Alcohol turns the player into a fearless kamikaze.)) For some addicts, this is a kind of tranquilizer that helps them cope in a stressful situation. Generally speaking, in large quantities drunk alcohol is evil. Everything is useful in moderation.

If your results are important to you, you better not play drunk. There are many other interesting things you can do drunk, such as drinking beer. :D

Alcohol tends to loosen me up and I bluff a lot more, which can get me into a lot of trouble.
