poker and drugs


Recommended Posts

I have read a number of articles of late regarding certain pro's advopcating the use of specialist drugs in order to support their game. Matusow, Phillips and now Negreanu. Do you think these should be allowed / supported / promoted? Will they be available to the wider public (i.e. outside of Vegas / USA) and do you really think they would make a difference to your average 5/10 Limit or 2/4 NL player who is good, but not great?Discuss.

DNA you are seriously such a tool. The guy has 192 posts and asked what appeared to me as a decent question. Why do you have to pop in on every post and annoy the piss out of everyone??To the OP - I dont think I would take any of these new "performance" pills. Im sure most of them are a bunch of herbal concoctions that are meant to improve concentration, memory, etc. They will not turn your everyday 2/4 player into DN though. JMO

Seriously, DNA, what is all that about? A semi-original question. Poker related. Reasonably well articulated. Whats not to like? What actually possesses you to come back at me with your latest comedy picture? Bizarre. And quite pitiful.

Thank you for the helpful link. I spend more than a little time on here and have never seen it discussed. I certainly didnt know they were already marketed.

bOOM This is quick1 - not illegal, never should be illegal2- stupid question for asking, we already covered it. So is every post original and fresh? What about the monotony of all the homosexual innuendo? 3 - Yes the picture was worth the laugh Glad you thought so. 4 - JFinn.

And yet you just couldnt avoid posting. And who mentioned legalities?

I found DNA's pic to be quite hilarious. Seriously though, how much can some stupid pills help?
Well just look at Daniels performance since he started taking them. Pretty much all of 2005. I think the pills abilities speak for themselves. I hear they are having a hard time keeping them in stock.

Alright, I apologize for coming off harsh. But explain to me the reasoning behind it not being illegal therfore it is a lame post? He is asking good questions on some of the different "vitamins" available out there. I have been a member here for a long time and can only remember the topic coming up a few times and certainly not within the last couple of weeks. Some of us here have lives and cannot read every single post on here every single day. Maybe its because Im not 16, but I dont get why someone has to make fun of every single post on here.And DNA - "I would eat his shit then call him sir"Would you like this?

The word illegal isnt directed at "federal law"it can be used in the same context in which your post was described, Ie: The WSOP or any official poker game held within a casino.meaning they don't ban it as a "enhancement" On the other side., I've won two MTT's while drinking, and came 2nd in the Freerole event in Vegas with negreanu after i had thrown back about 5 beer.should alcohol be allowed while playing poker??.. i mean, i sure as hell seem to get good results while drinking

They are not taking any illegal drugs, they are vitamins and herbal supplements. Phillips however takes a prescription drug that helps him focus, but he has ADD or ADHD so he would be taking it anyway.

Lol. Great point.Everyone, if you're looking to enhance your poker game, just smoke a ton of reefer. It won't "improve" your playing, but it will definately enhance the experience.

I played in a home game that had some choice substances moving around the table almost as fast as the action. I donked off all my chips and dont remember 1 hand! LMAO!

just out of curiosity, have any of u 'puffed' and played?i find playing with friends, it's easier to sell yourself as out of control if u drink a bit, and can keep your head reasonably clear. the puff adds to this effect.plus it's more fun.
