Playing drunk is good So i went out for a few cheeky ones last night with a couple of mates, but in the back of my mind I knew that i was registered for the 5k tournament leaderboardfreeroll which starts at 2:30am. I do have quite a solid rule that i never play drunk, but freerolls are obviously exempt from this.

@cyber, its good that you take your advice alone with only cost 35$ everywhere we can find advices for evrething. but its best, when we can take advice with own experince. so, you're lucky that your advice do not play drunk costs only 35$

When I was early into poker, a bit of alcohol helped loosen me up and make a few bluffs and stabs at pots I usually wouldn't. So it has helped somewhat with my strategy over time. Now that I have a solid gameplan, drinking completely destroys it. I'm one of the lucky ones-- most I've lost in a night is about $400. The problem is that I go on tilt so easily that I'll hit a high priced heads-up or the damn blackjack table.
There's another part to this subject though-- targeting drunks. This is easiest at your local casino but on Friday or Saturday nights when I wasn't already out drinking, I'd troll around online tables, looking for a player who seems overly loose(Or find a chatty drunk slurring in the chat). I made some really good money playing late night weekends with that in mind.
