Message: [QUOTE="Pokerpoet2, post: 6855632, member: 430261"] I treat Drinking and Poker like I treat Drinking and Driving, I never mix the two, There is a reason why it is Illegal to Drive While you are under the Influence of Alcohol, So rather than risk getting caught I do not even have one drink before I drive. The reason being everyone gets Inebriated at different levels, For some people it could be 10 Pints for others just a couple would put them over the limit, so why risk it? Has anyone heard of the term "Dutch Courage". I know what it means, being under the influence of Alcohol, makes you Brave and unafraid of anything but Where the term originates from is a mystery? What I do know is that Alcohol Dulls the senses and can lead to bad Decisions, That is why it is dangerous to Drink and Drive, and is Illegal. Likewise mixing any form of Gambling while you are drunk can lead to bad judgement and poor decisions. [/QUOTE]
