Default playing while asleep

I take Ambien every now and then to help me sleep. since it takes a couple minutes to kick it, I maytake it as a session is winding down. It's certainly a strange feeling to be playing once the drug kicks in. Anyone else have similar experiences. I know i've seen some strange situations come up because of my mental lag.

Why do take this drug during a session? This stuff is POWERFUL! I was prescribed it once and couldn't believe how well it worked. It only took like 10 minutes for it to kick in, so why not just wait until you are done with your session ?

Taking drugs and playing poker I mean shouldn't the answer be obvious ?

Last time I fell asleep while playing I got QQ on the next hand and timed out.(I only know this because pokertracker shows I have a QQ folded pre-flop and I looked it up). I would have won a good sized pot. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
