smoking and playing poker are two difficult times to stop, cigarettes are bad for health and poker as zes is bad for your pocket.

Hello.
I have never smoked in my life. Honestly, I am very glad, because it is a very bad habit.

Do what you want when playing online but PLEASE don't smoke during a live game. It's extremely inconsiderate to those who are non-smokers (whether ex-smokers or never-smokers).

Congrats on quitting - that's a major accomplishment! More money for poker!

All the casino's here are smoke free. I don't think I'd ever stay long at a live game if ppl were smoking at the table.

I like to smoke when I'm playing online but I like that card rooms around here are smoke free. If I win a big hand or feel like I'm tilting some I'll walk out for a minute take a few puffs and come back. It's too easy to chainsmoke while playing.

Do you believe we should be able to smoke cigarettes while we play, or do you like the non smoking trend?

Still , I exercise , so am in good health :rolleyes:

I prefer the non-smoking environment and never smoked personally. I don't have a problem with people smoking at the table if it's allowed.

I've smoked for more than 5 years. When i stress i smoke, when I'm in pain i smoke.
SO in poker i stress a lot from bad beats, something I'm not proud of.
So i smoke while a play poker (not at the table), it calms me down, nothing like breathing in whats killing me, to sooth my nerves.....if you get what i mean, i think only smokers can relate lol
But even though i smoke, i don't like smoking indoors......i just sit out and go for a smoke and make it back to my seat and hope i didn't miss more than 5 hands.

I mean I think the latter but just because I don't smoke and really think people shouldn't in general if they care about their health. I'm definitely for getting people the most comfortable they can be at the poker tables though

I've stopped smoking for more than 5 years. When I smoked, I smoked in only 5 minutes of breaks. I think we can smoke while playing, I just did not smoke for hygiene reasons, but I do not condemn smokers.

I see no reason why smoking should or would need to be allowed at the tables. I keep my home games smoke free and prefer to play in smoke free games.

Back before smoking was banned at tables, yeah, it was easy to chain smoke. I quit recently too and now that I don't -- yeah -- I'm glad it's been "banned". Except at the casinos here in Louisiana, all you have to do is walk about 10 feet over to the border between poker & slots to smoke.
