I find poker much more enjoyable (although not nearly as profitable) while drunk out of my mind .

Ummmm, I think I have you all beat, but I'm not sure I want to say why and by how much. Instead, I'll just share this story with you:

I come home after school and I am sick with the flu. Instead of taking the day off, which I told myself I would, I proceed to play for maybe twelve hours, losing more than half of my bankroll. It was so much worse than it sounds.

"You have a story worse than that?" you ask. Ohhhhh yes. Yes I do.

One time at a live 4-8 game I had just won two nice pots in a row. As I'm raking in a whole bunch of chips (the cardroom uses $1 chips in this game) I look down and see KQo. Its folded to me in EMP, and I fold [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]. It was some weird combination of wanting time to stack my chips and getting a "feeling" that I was due to lose a hand and give some money back. I felt like such a fish (especially when a Q flopped on a very non-threatening board - then I got to feel like a results-oriented fish [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]).

I have one so bad that I'll post after I get results.

For now, it's berating fish at $0.25/$0.50 and lower after getting outdrawn. I never do it in my regular game but I derive so much satisfaction from it.

I was playing online 2/4 the other day, and I went bust on a short buy after getting outdrawn as a small favorite. I started typing "FUK YOU THAT WAS MY RENT MONEY!! OMFG, WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?"

I then proceed to load up with something like $1300 on the table. Everyone thought it was pretty funny actually, including the guy who sucked out on me. I never actually berate people.

"If you feel like it, confess your poker sins here."


At the Mirage last night, I called a total stranger a Bitch.


She was a sweet looking young thing too.



Forgive me players, for I have sinned.
