[Diman111]

[alucaa]

I enjoy it more, but I also lose more JASJJA

 

[Dejana]

I don't know where I am, not knowing to play any kind of poker and just want to dance...so...
Alcohol and poker is not for me! 😁

 

[Sschafell]

I believe it depends on the quantity, if it is little it does not affect, but in excess it does affect decision making.

 

[NSX_Amfe2nat]

I do not drink at all, so i cant say

 

[Dimidrol2]

It is better not to play with alcohol. It gives false feelings.

 

[havingfun]

It makes me play more lose and aggressive. Sometimes that can work and you win, but mostly I feel I play worse with alcohol.

...it definitely gets a lot worse... drinking and playing home games is cool...

 

[Viking26]

În my opinion who doesn T drink at all or rarely shouldn T drink while playing ..it could affect the players game...who drinks more often can help to be more relaxed And maybe gives more confidence ..

Small amount it helps, a lot it ruins the game.

Drinking while playing poker can mess with your thinking, making it harder to focus and plan your moves well

 

[Goggelheimer]

It is like don't drink and drive.
Don't play poker and consume alcohol.

Alcohol had only a negative effect on my game, my life, my health and my mental state. Alcohol only causes problems. I'm definitely not one of those people who can drink a glass of wine in the evening, calmly and without incident

Became a better player after I stopped drinking

 

[userX]

I drink beer quite often during the game. I may not play very focused when I'm drunk, but at least it's fun and the game brings me the most positive emotions. Although sometimes, there is too much beer

 

[andron205]

pretty bad

Alcohol almost always makes your poker game worse. While it might lower inhibitions and make you feel more confident or relaxed, it impairs judgment, slows reaction time, and reduces your ability to read situations accurately. This can lead to looser, riskier decisions, missed strategic opportunities, and emotional reactions like tilt. Some players may think a drink or two helps them "loosen up," but over time, even small amounts of alcohol can lead to costly mistakes. If you're playing seriously—especially for real money—it's best to stay clear-headed and sober.

Without a doubt, it worsens your game, it affects your reasoning, so the tendency is for you to lose the game.

A glass or two of whisky can make the night enjoyable but i may end up taking more risks when I do.

 

[tihomir_kula]

Alcohol gives unsupported with knowledge power and the result is always horrible.

 

[skaterick]

one sure way to win : drink whiskey and get frisky !

 

[R.Holynskyi]

Sometimes I won a lot when I was drunk. But in general, I think I lost more than I won. Although maybe my memory is wrong.
In general, we can say one thing: if you have long-term goals in poker and you are serious, then alcohol will definitely be superfluous.
