Playing Drunk

[Bangert001]

Who here plays poker drunk, have u ever had big wins while drunk.

I seem to think its a good idea going all in with crap drunk, lose a fortune lol.

I play poker a lot. I get drunk occasionally. The two coincide from time to time, but I really haven't had a big loser when hammered. I've had some big wins though.

I vote for the bolded part to be considered for understated post of the month!

Being drunk doesn't seem to effect your grasp of the English language, so I think you'll find no ill effects playing poker drunk.

I stand my vote as RD for favorite sarcastic bastard.

[PShabi]

ditto

I feel that 1 or 2 loosens me up and I actually play better. Get in the zone. Mind u 1 or 2. But I do love the drunk call stations.

I dont drink so guess I dont know if I play better drunk.

Since alcohol lowers inhibitations, and the last thing I need is that KTo to be looking even better in early position, I have a strict rule with myself about drinking and poker. Easy rule... no playing poker if I've had anything to drink that day, and the first drink doesn't get poured until the last table is closed down. The only exception is the league games, where I expect to suck anyway, and am only there to have fun.

As an aside, when my dad flew he had a strict rule about "12 hours between bottle and throttle". Whenever he quoted it he'd pause, get a little twinkle in his eye, and follow it up with "That's why you'll always see pilots drinking their beer out of a can".

heh. nh Dad.

This game is gonna be great..... I'm thinking we shoot for midnight some weekend night. The BARE minimum will be 4 beers consimed in the past 2 hours, but I expect 6 packs to be consumed by all the guys.... For the GeoffM's and Mayhems out there who put down 12 before the cards are dealt - more power to you.

Oh, and there are Bonus Points* if you continue drinking throughout the tourney.

*Bonus Points are worthless, of course.

I vote for Saturday, July 8th... RD will be a bachelor as the wife and kids will be up in Atlanta for the week so RD will be drunk and RD will be playing poker.

[Robbie Robb]

Dude! We can't remember to show up and play poker on Saturday's when we're SOBER!!! You expect anyone to remember to show up drunk?!?!?! {points to Saturday league events as proof}

[Reel Deal]

I have more faith in this group when drinking is involved...
