Default Re: Doping in poker

I've taken aderol to study for finals and I can see how its being drawn comparisons to cocaine in a way. I don't think its nearly as dangerous but from what i hear about cocaine you dont eat or sleep and the few times i took aderol i didn't eat or sleep for a day or so and had a ton more focus after i took it. So I can see how a player could benefit from this while playing a marathon session, but I don't think poker should put a ban on drugs like this.

Adderall is good and it helps while playing, especially multitabling.

I doubt Adderoll would help most people play a hand better, but it would likely help someone who can play their best for 2-3 hours at a time do so for 10-12 hours at a time.

Thanks for your response - are you in college, a teacher? Can you give me some info on you knowledge backing.

On a chemicl basis it is very very similiar to cocaine, and its effects are equally as similiar. The government regulation has allowed scientist to add what is called a timed release meaning it last 12 hours, compared to cocains...? I don't know how long cocaine lasts, but in short you are exactly right.

It's actually not similar to cocaine it is a type of amphetamine which explains why it is so popular. I would be careful with any amphetamines as they have a sneaky way of getting out of control.

I just got my "Steroids: The Supplement of Champions" t-shirt in the mail yesterday. Do I need to get a "Ritalin" one now?

Don't joke, only pussies drink red bull or take Stacker 2 before they play, real men do a line of cocaine every break.
