Alcohol and Poker

[reska11]

The ideal formula for casino owners.

 

[wushibala]

If I have the chance to enjoy a beer while playing, I definitely do.
Does it affect my game? Probably depends on how much you drink and how quickly.
I like to stretch the pleasure out over time, so for me — it doesn’t really get in the way.

 

[David91V]

Dont think that a good pair 😄

Poker and alcohol consumption during play don't mix. Alcohol can decrease the ability to objectively assess situations, impairing the ability to make rational decisions and leading to impulsive and misguided choices that can result in financial losses. Alcohol consumption can affect poker players due to its effects on judgment and decision-making, leading to poorer game performance and risky behavior.

 

[fernandovr]

No, I’ve never lost money due to alcohol. I always avoid playing when I drink, exactly to stay focused and in control.

Avoid the three B's! Booze Babes and Bad Bets.

I LOVE the combination of alcohol and poker, especially when my opponents are mixing them while playing. My ROI goes up when I play them.

 

[IronMike9000]

Its a winning combination

 

[HunRicky63]

Pénzt veszített alkohol hatása alatt, mert bátrabb volt?

It's not good to play drunk. You can't play properly!

 

[HunRicky63]

Imádom az alkohol és a póker kombinációját, különösen, ha az ellenfeleim játék közben keverik őket. A ROI-m növekszik, amikor játszom velük.

I haven't won drunk yet.

 

[HunRicky63]

Természetesen, mint a legtöbbünk, én is pénzt veszítettem azzal, hogy ittasan játszottam. Azt hiszem, senki sem mentes ettől. De a tapasztalataim lehetővé tették, hogy következtetéseket vonjak le, és már nem játszom részeget

He plays braver, but he doesn't win.

 

[Peteski84]

I play pretty much the same. But I get that, I do feel braver. And tonight's the night (whisky).

 

[Maxxo]

poker + alcohol = rullette

 

[mdnmdn]

No alcohol for me

 

[RonanPERNA]

Well, I don't drink at all, because I don't like alcoholic beverages. I believe it does influence the decisions made during the plays.

 

[StrangeWaves]

The perfect combo

Yeah, I’ve definitely made some braver (and not in a good way) decisions after a couple of drinks. In the moment it felt like confidence—looking back, it was just loosened discipline. Poker rewards patience and clear thinking, and alcohol tends to chip away at both.

 

[Uncloggie]

I am not sure we would have poker if it weren't for alcohol.

Think of every western movie saloon scene. Poker, booze, prostitutes, guns , tobacco and pianos . But they shot too many pianists so they had to invent the player piano.
Now we got AI for the music.

Drugs replaced tobacco.

Robots are putting the prostitutes out on the street. (pardon the double entendre lol)

They are definately trying to get rid of guns.

All we have left is booze and poker .

Yippee Ki Yay

 

[moraeskvmi]

I've never been through this, but alcohol certainly won't help you make the best decisions at the tables.

 

[Magallaneroy]

I like to drink one or two shots and play some poker, too much can dismiss my Game.

 

[diffidaticonnoi]

i like to drink beer during games

 

[MAFNL16061986]

not a verry good combination xd xd

 

[alucaa]

Yes, alcohol and listening to music, my most dangerous combination hahahaha.

 

[RodrigoMartins]

Luckily no, I never play while drinking. For me, poker needs a clear head — otherwise it’s just gambling. But I do enjoy smoking a cigar at the table
