Everyone likes to eat. Do you guys notice a difference in your play and mental acuity when you eat healthy before a session versus when you eat whatever you consider to be non healthy?

I don’t think about food during games at all. Another thing - I drink tea during the game. And quite a lot. It seems to me that when I drink tea, I am more calm.

Lack of good nutrition will wreck your concentration levels. On the other hand avoid too much roughage before a long session, you may find your taking too many toilet breaks :)

The truth is that I have never noticed if my game in poker improves or worsens according to the foods I eat ... what I am sure is that before starting my game session ... I always take my lunch or dinner according to the time When did I start my game session ...!

Yes, of course! When I eat heavy food, I usually lose. And if you eat let's say a Mandarin or an Apple, then fine. It is better not to eat anything at all. You can eat a little, during the break, but only a little. Again, if you are on the Spiritual path, it is better not to eat. And if you have the usual way, you can eat anything. I go on a Spiritual path so when I eat rough and heavy food, I stop playing, and I lose. So that from whom what path.

Surprisingly, when I eat, I stay in tournaments for the longest time. That's only when the food runs out ....)))

Hunger-success and a step to victory!But we must not forget the fact that a hungry person can think about food and distract from the game - draw conclusions)!good luck!

Hello.
I always try to eat only healthy food. In addition, I do sports 5 days a week and meditate twice a day. Therefore, I always feel great at 100%.

In general, I try not to eat before the game itself. I have drowsiness after eating for 2-3 hours. During the game, small snacks are possible, and yes, these are vegetables, fruits, a small sandwich. The head, as a rule, does not think well on a full stomach.

Nope. Specially when you're in location where it's (too) hot (like me right now) then you just don't eat (too much) ...

if, of course, so that we must nourish ourselves while we play because they are energies that one keeps wear out as long as we last playing at tables or online I think it is very important as much as normally as for health for ourselves greetings

I don't think it's a great idea to play without eating. As the Snickers commercials always say, "you're not you when you're hungry"

I have not noticed that the food I eat has an impact on the results of my game. I think that you can eat whatever you want, but the main thing is not to overeat.

The main thing is that it was tasty and satisfying. To be able to cook quickly during breaks😋

Generally I try to eat healthy, not only before a game, but all the times. Usually I have eaten something before the game, or I eat during a break something light for the evening.

Nutrition before Game and in during Game

Hi the ALL CardsChat Community!
What foodstuffs do You eat before Game, especially this is will a long tournament or a long playing session? And what do You eat,
if You wanted, in the breaks?.. One word, what do You charge your brains, that to be in the most best playing form!
For example, I before Game often eat a rice with chicken and drink a tea with honey and any muffin. In the breaks
I eat the bananas and drink sweet tea again (may be with lemon), or black coffee with the chocolate, especially, when I play the night;
if I play early morning, I'm very like coffee with milk and with chocolate or muffin.;):cool::D

Usually, I prefer fruit. But sometimes I order pizza, although I understand that it is better to eat healthy food.
