| So twice now in the last week I got drunk and played and did pretty good. Then the other night I got really drunk, blacked out, and half my roll was gone. Then I played drunk again and my money is moving up again. What Is your thoughts, drunk or no?? |

| I think it's fine as long as you play above your normal limits. |

Haha, that was great.
To OP, I think playing drunk is fine. I have a lot of fun playing poker while drunk. If you have tilt issues (like myself) I'd be very careful though. Many a night I've found my drunk self talking me into playing obscene limits.
Drunken heaters can be nice though, heh. |

haha... in computer programming circles, we refer to that as the ballmer peak. check it out: http://xkcd.com/323/ (just an online comic, safe to click)
alcohol mixes with many things well, albeit briefly. |

| In the poker, sucking my azz off circles, I call that having no freinds whatsoever on full tilt. I apreciate the hillarias, humor, making fun of me, and if I could cost you money I would. O well I was drunk and movin up, next time I know not to ask anything here unless i'm sober. That is knowledge I never wanted to find out waisted, but hey , I shouldn't have asked while I was drunk I guess. Never mad don't worry. Good luck to you............................... |

According to Dolly, drinking & poker don't mix.
I guess if you don't take his advice, then you are on your own. |

Loved the Ballmer Peak reference! Although an even funnier puchline could have been Microsoft "Bob".
Drinking and playing in person creates much more fun for me. I take a few more risks and enjoy the evening more win or lose. |

| I normally don't drink while I'm playing for money, unless it's a home game. But when I start tilting really bad, drunken freerolls are the shit. |

| I like to drink, and I like poker. Having poker just a mouse click away, (as pssed to a possible DUI getting to a casino) makes the impulse to play drunk occasionally one I can't resist. Good poker IS a game of frequent close decisons, which become much harder to make when juiced, so when I mix booze and poker I limit myself to a low priced tournament. That way I never have to wonder the next day how I pissed off my BR, and might even discover I had a nice cash. |
