Default Getting drunk, playing poker, stacking off.

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.

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.
