1 Never drink alcohol during or before playing poker. You will regret it later.
A clear mind and full concentration are the most important components of success.
2️⃣ Smoking a cigarette is fine. As for marijuana — only very rarely, and only the kind that gives energy and creativity, not laziness. But don’t overdo it, or it will have bad effects.
3️⃣ Eating is energy. We spend a lot of mental energy while playing, so supporting your body with food is not a mistake.
4️⃣ Music gives me good mood and energy. I usually listen to it, and I see more benefits than distractions.
5️⃣ In general — use anything that gives you energy and helps you focus (for example, coffee).
And if you realize something hurts your game — just don’t do it again.
