Poker, especially at freeroll and small stakes level is tough enough without mind altering substances...whether or not you smoke or drink while playing, there will always be some idiot who goes all in with 7,2 offsuit against your pocket aces and flops 7,7,2 to beat you....maybe that's where the weed would help.

the worst combination since the game is about concentration and patience for the analysis of your opponents that in the end will not lead you to anything good with this agreement

I don't know, I would better play sober, weed can make you do some mistakes. But I think it's a lot better combination than alcohol and poker.

So play poker sober

What's my screen name? And I'm tobacco free! But it depends on the player/person. If you can't focus it's probably not for you. But if you, like me, focus better with it. Enjoy! Unless you're in a shitty state where it's illegal. If that's the case, move.

It all depends on how the weed affects you. If you have a high tolerance and are a medical marijuana user, it is not likely to negatively affect you at all. But if you never smoke it, or only rarely smoke it, and you decide to get high and then go play, you will probably not do well. And the amount you use could make a big difference. If you keep smoking all day, even with a high tolerance you will probably end up too stoned to make good decisions at the table.

I think it will be like anything else,the amount used and the user will make the results very. I like to have a drink about half hour before a big tourney to help settle my nerves,but I don't drink at the table and don't get drunk.

poker and pot

I think it is still compatible, it helps to focus on the game. Unlike alcohol, there is no lasting effect, and such a harmful effect on health does not have. But in general, you need everything in moderation, including playing poker.
tell the truth i love it only a littel cause u dont want to get spacy but my gen been smoke play video games all the time helps me play more relaxed some of my best wins

Poker and marijuana maybe are worst combinatios. For me, poker and beer is still better than this. But not recommendable too.

I played years while I was smoking ganja and I can assure you that are more negative aspects than positive aspects! Best to avoid it definitely more relaxed game but when there is tension are not polished to manage it.

I think it's individual, it is possible to feel better opponents on an intuitive level. Deeper concentration and immersion in the game. It is important that no one and nothing distract from the game. Also can be useful for playing a little alcohol, for courage. Amphetamine, after all). Take care of your health, play clear, best regards.

Marijuana is ideal for live poker. In 2017 I was in California, and the first time smoking marijuana. At home, I prefer to play many tournaments with music and beer.

Definitely not. Of course, you can benefit from it. But only in dreams.

I enjoy smoking myself, I find that it keeps me from over betting my hand for I am more relaxed at the table.

I do not think it is good to consume anything that might affect my reasoning and decision making, be it marijuana or drink.

I don't get to smoke anymore because of employment reasons, but I will say I really used to enjoy burning one and hitting the tables. I cannot wait for retirement in another 20 years or so. I am going to get so lit....LOL

Hi.
Previously, I often smoked marijuana. But over the past few years, I have some health problems. High blood pressure does not allow me to relax as it was before. Therefore, in fact, now I do not smoke even cigarettes.

I believe that in certain instances that the use of marijuana could help out, but as a generality I believe that it would be more of a hindrance. And that's my two cents. Kerching!!! Kerching!!!
