Re: Weed and poker

when seeking advice, always remember this:

no two people are identical.

what works for most, will not always work for you.
Be very aware of yourself, your thoughts your actions, and adjust your self as needed.

discuss.
Player's that think blazing decreases ability probably are player's that are not comfortable with marijuana.

Re: Weed and poker

Getting stoned is a good for hand history reviews but not that great for playing.

Re: Weed and poker

do you guys continue to hit the volcano throughout a sesh, or just once before? I find after 3 or so hits (13-15 bags @6-7) i get too burnt out.. never had that problem from smoking.. maybe quality is the issue

Re: Weed and poker

+1 on the blazing while grinding being good

my only problem is that i like to get high earlier on with other people and whenever i sit down to grind i get distracted then burnt out and never end up playing. but on the times when i do get around to it, o baby

adderal all day, benzos post, holler !

on a different note, I had to quit using my volc and grinding. i was just getting far too high and playing really bad, moreso than normal. That being said, I do smoke during near 100% of my sessions, usually for tilt control. I just smoke, and don't vap. Also, on a non-thread related note, I prefer smoking my weed to vaping it. Especially my good weed.

Obviously quality / type of bud is important for grinding. headdy sativa stuff good, have the headdy indicas for after. dont have beaster. well, while you grind. if you want to get tired afterwards go ahead.

I think it will hurt how well you are able to play. If i'm really high I just don't think as thoroughly and efficiently.. But it makes the grind way more bearable, and helping not tilt off is pretty huge.

Re: Weed and poker

I prolly play worse when high but it motivates me like nothing else. I don't know why but when I'm sober I'll be lazy, watch tv while sitting around doing nothing. But when I'm high I instantly wanna play. And as long as I don't get too tired I can play forever with one hit after every beat.

No doubt it's bad for my play though. Cutting down on tables when high really helps.
