Alas, not for me. I'm starting to do stupid things. The game is not going as it should be.

Oh, how! You know me better than I know myself. Well, it's probably better to look from the outside.

Don't even play if I had a hard day at work! Try play in a good mood, well rested and with no drink or smoke. Something I read early on stayed with me.

I often play poker when I drink alcohol, it relaxes me, the main thing is not to get carried away,
when you start to lose you have to stop.:devilish::)

It can influence your judgment which can, as a consequence, lead to decreasing profits. If you treat is as a job, it's a nono for me.
Joint after hours is a different story, though :cool:

Horrible idea for most people I imagine. Might not negatively effect some though.

even after drinking a little beer, the game becomes quite different, you lose control of the game, so my advice is not a drop if you want to achieve a good result

It's a good idea to play while being high. It's even better to let us know where you are playing at the time.

Never played while high. But I played when I was drunk 😂😂 it's such a cool feeling. It feels like you're not playing for real money and can go all-in with 7 2😀 when the table is dealt AA10 K J

While in the early stages of the tournament, it is important to maintain your stack to get right at the end. As for reading the opponents, I will disagree, because I believe that in live, you have more tells of your opponents.

Never been high, I would be afraid to play high. It might improve my game. I have only had a drink or two just to get relaxed before a game if I think I am the fish, hahahahaha

Sometimes is good for me drunk when play, but not so much, because it's very clear to me this is not a lucrative thing to do

I play high everyday. I think it's a good thing for me. It really gets my mind churning and I end up having full blown conversations in my head about why a person is or isn't holding a particular hand. To add to this, marijuana in general, opens up your "creative side". Being creative throughout a tournament is a great tool to keep in the toolbox. Example: We all generally have a particular play style, and great players will pick up on your style and take their notes and you will be somewhat readable to an experienced player. But throw in some creativeness here and there, like checking or betting when you shouldn't, 4 bet jamming in certain situations, calling that 4 bet with 4 5 suited, etc. It can really throw off your opponents. GTO kind of goes along with this as you should always have bluffs in your range. This is my opinion the subject. I turned pro a couple of years ago. I can't say it's been easy or extremely profitable, but it's been paying the bills. Keep grinding 👍

Following your logic - only alcoholics and drug addicts play live poker:mad:

I loved nothing better than seeing beer bottles in the cup holders and drinks on the little carts. Many a electricity bill was paid with their money.
