Do you drink alcohol when you play poker?

[kiso777]

from time to time whiskey

 

[WHAKAORIORI]

Lol hell no . Ild be another statistic with the bad beats that get dished out. I smoke spots / marijuana.

 

[Alex Sentsov]

I usually drink alcohol. And then comes the idea to play poker

 

[Takoyaki]

Sometimes I drink a beer or two, no more than this.
Other times I take a glass of wine. Not everyday.
It doesn't affect my gameplay at all.

 

[edujah420]

I don't drink alcohol during tournaments because I try to stay hydrated as much as I can.

 

[peaceofcoke]

Yes, wine is the best companion, especially in a long tournament

 

[el_soma77]

Usually it is not necessary, I think that each thing has its time and space, it is not good to mix the drink with the game, since we can get confused and not measure the losses.


poker is like liquor, if you don't know how to control it, it can ruin you ...

 

[yezzrr]

I've learned that it's best not to drink at all, let alone while trying to play cards for considerable money.

[mclay]

For me personally, even a small dose of alcohol negatively affects my game. I only drink when playing with friends at home.

 

[kanycta99]

When I play freeroll I can afford a glass of wine. If I play for money, then juice or tea is better. Alcohol will help you lose your bankroll ...

Light alcohol in small quantities

Hi everyone,

in my opinion it‘s ok to drink one beer or light alcohol during poker. But i don‘t drink often while playing. For me it‘s kind relaxing after a working day and a day with 2 children or family to play in the evening, sometimes with a beer...but only one.
More than 2 or 3 beer has a big influence on your desicions and your mindset, i think.

I think it‘s something different when you earn money with poker. Then you shouldn‘t drink anything. Except after a bad beat or something, then it‘s ok to drink a shot or a cocktail. But when i go to work, i „usually“ don‘t drink anything, so the Pros shouldn‘t do either.

As a not so serious player I usually drink a beer at night when I am playing. Of course I would avoid playing poker after coming back from a night out with your frieds. That is a bad idea.

 

[fundukpoker]

This is a very easy question for me. I never drink alcohol =) I am always sober and fresh:angel::angel::angel:

 

[gena31]

I do not recommend drinking alcohol before and during the game, you risk losing all your money, learn from the mistakes of others and not from yours

 

[TaigaMaster]

emotions in poker, and indeed the general psychological state when playing, is an extremely important topic. alcohol helps me calm down

 

[DancingNancie]

When I play live I tend to drink a bit. I find people tend to open up against players who drink at the table. I like to open my range and appear wild at first, then tighten up so my big hands get paid off.

 

[marcrues]

I find it makes poker more enjoyable but definitely does not make me a better player.

 

[McDavid27]

Yes i do, i drink like a fish

Sometimes I do drink though and start cracking jokes.

 

[korbal29]

I drink coffee does it count?

 

[Riccoboni]

The alcoholic drink decreases the attention in the game. Drinking alcohol and playng is the same as drinking and driving. Something bad is going to happen.

 

[edujah420]

No, because alcohol takes my attention away from poker. I prefer to drink water or some juice

 

[andreigabor]

This is a really bad idea, to drink and after that to play poker, formme dosen t work so well, yesterday I was somewhere with my friends and when I come back home I was start playing the game and loose everything. I hope other people to drink and play )

 

[Ultfrozen]

When we meet with friends live, we play and drink, but we play more for fun, if the game is serious, then I think it's not worth drinking, thinking and adequate assessment of the situation is blunted

 

[frnandoh]

Thats not a good combo for me
