Come on, admit it. You too get drunk and blow gigantic holes in your bankroll, and jump up limits "to make it back."

When I read the title I thought stacking off meant jerking off.

No, I never tilt.

Oh, this is different then tilting. This is when a short evening session becomes an alcohol and amphetamine fueled marathon, lasting far longer than The Dude's stamina run. Much more fun. By the end of it "tilting" is a far too sophisticated concept to apply to the situation.

i'd like to hear your drunkest stories.

here's mine. i came home absolutely plastered and played $30/$60 and lost $400 in 14 hands. i almost lost my whole pokerstars bankroll of $1200, when i ended up all-in on the turn in a multi-raised pot with J6o with a J on the flop. One guy had 44 and the other had 99. i ended up winning leaving me with $800 and I decided I better get out.

i usually play 2/4, 3/6, and 5/10. the only reason i was at 30/60 is because i wanted to play bigger than 5/10 and that was the next level that had a game going on.

this used to be a common occurence for me.

now i have improved so much that my game doesnt suffer all that much when i am plastered.

Don't worry salt, some poker slipped into the OOT, we will get rid of it for you.

This is scary, happened to me where I was drunk and lost 4 buyins on the 50NL game. I joined a 2/4 NL (which is way above my limit) and was able to stack someone and made a profit for the night of around $200. Had I lost I'd be down $600 which would have crippled my bankroll.

Now if I want to play drunk I'll join the 5NL tables. Or the 10NL if I'm feeling lucky.
