IBC Cream Soda for me...how about you guys?
water / energy drinks
Sprite.
large fountain Mt. Dew plz.
Black Coffee
Rye and ginger ale for a home game
Water or ginger ale for online
water or MtDew/MelloYellow
BEER
maybe some more BEER
or Wine
Home game, BEER, or Whiskey & Ginger ale.
Is this a leak?
When Playing Online: Water
When Playing at a Casino: Maker's Mark + Coke (hey, free drinks)
When Playing a Home Game: no favorite's here...anything with alcohol in it, the more the merrier
As you can see, my online poker is more money-making-oriented and my live poker is more fun-oriented.
quite possibly :)Quote:

Fuck you if you put coke in it! :cool:
No doubt you should take advantage of free drinks for two reasons.
1.) they're fucking free
2.) you're opponents perception of you wil change
beer or whiskey.
ice cold government juice (tap water)
While playing online I usually just drink water.
At the casino I will drink energy drinks (unfortunately I am not old enough to drink legally yet)
Weekly homegame either Jamison Whiskey, assorted types of beer (usually fat tire, sierra nevada pale ale or if I am feeling cheap bud light), and if I am really feeling like a cocktail I will go with some caribou lou (151, cocunut rum and pineapple juice).
Online: Some kind of pop usually, or water
Home: Beer or pop
Water. I'm one of those crazy people who actually drinks the 10 glasses of water per day that are recommended in most junior high school health textbooks. I just think it tastes good though. Actually, I'm pretty sure the only beverage besides water that I've consumed in the past two weeks is a mango lassi.
You said pop! :heart: :heart: :heart:Quote:

I'd ~drink~ cocaine if I had some!
About drinking in a casino affecting how the table looks at you...
Unlike most of you guys, I make the vast majority of my income in B+M games. The way I look at the guys who are drinking is not a way you want to be looked at. You look like my rent money.
I do drink at home games and bar tourneys if I'm doing well and don't need the income boost.
Bushmills (sometimes ice, sometimes not), guiness, stella sometimes if I want something light.
I did show up to a home game completely blasted one time, I drank a cup full of vodka straight while there (it's all they had) and took down a tournament while looking like an elitist asshole and making sure I'd never get to sit in that weak-ass game ever again. That sucks... on the bright side I woke up hung over WITH money instead of hung over WITHOUT money...
oh yeah... online and casino play, room temp water or coffee.
non sparkling water and coffee.
when im bored its redbull mixed with jagermeister for playing $1 horse sng´s.
Red wine.
Red, Red Wine as UB40 once sang. Though UB40 are f*cking shit.
online: coke, coffee Irn bru
Live/casino: Fosters beer, i play good limit when typsy.
Homegame: vodka, the buy in isnt enough for me to care im bluffing off 100bbs with ace high again :wink:
Maybe you'd call off your stack less if you twitched less.Quote:

This is exactly why you want to be looked at that way. You'd rather come off looking like a donk who will give you the rent money than coming off as a decent player.Quote:

Of course, I could still be playing sub-optimally but am not aware of it - but it doesn't seem to affect my results.
I agree with biondino here. If I lose some of my edge when drinking during live games, it's really not too much of a lost edge (assuming I don't get too drunk). It's not like I become a bad or reckless player after a drink or two, I just lose a some of my ability to focus and my judgment gets a little cloudier (but still generally okay). I still retain an edge over typical casino competition. And the above discussed table image of "I'm here to gamble" really does counter some more of that lost edge.
Also, in my case, I don't go to casinos often enough to significantly affect my bankroll either way, so I'm there to have a good time and maybe win a little money, so drinking just makes sense. I'm not there to play my A+ game and win as much money as I can.
And by cocaine you of course mean the stuff you snort off the swollen saline-filled breasts of skanky-hot strippers?Quote:

when not playing poker i prefer wine
I usually say pop but tend to mix it up by saying soda every once in a while. Must be the midwest upbringing.Quote:

lol i just wanted to think of something absurd to consume while playing poker that doesn't even qualify as a drink. apparently this piqued a lot of peoples imaginations.
cocaine is actually an energy drink, I thought thats what you meant.
i guess I was wrong.
LOL. Hicks in the midwest say pop. Can't get more uncultured than that.Quote:

Online: Water, Bud Light (love this shit), pop.
Live homegames: Anything alcoholic
Live casino: Pepsi or water (too young to drink :()
Interesting how the top earner ITT only drinks water (unless I'm mistaken about him being the top earner). I wonder if there is some sort of correlation here..
You have to note that this thread is like, 2 years old lol. I was just looking back through some shit in the commune and found it lol. Some of these guys' diet may have changed.
Depends on the night; it's either water or the blood of young runaways.
yeah I stopped playing cash games on cocaine since this thread started...that's how old it is.
I don't think mcatdog has gone from drinking 10 cups of water a day to downing energy drinks and coke while grinding. Though I could be mistaken, perhaps he can give us an update.Quote:
