Playing high/drunk

What are some typical tendencies of players that play poker while under the influence of
a) marijuana?
b) alcohol?

a) tight passive
B) loose aggressive
that´s my personal tendency and i think it fits to most players.
it depends on individual tolerance.

Alcohol makes me loose-aggressive. Preflop standards? What are those? I check-raise more often (with nothing) and raise weak draws.

I had a ridiculous drunken idea to play like a maniac until someone asked what I was doing. I'd tell them I was drunk, and then tighten up when they started playing back at me. It was surprisingly effective.

I've cleaned up a 400NL table or two with this strategy, I'd avoid this in the higher games though.

I'd agree with weed making you tight and alcohol making you loose, but I think the passive/aggressive characteristics are player-dependent, as I've seen both sides from both drugs.

Alcohol: caused me to be sitting with 1150BB at an NL50 6max table one time. Also cost me 9 buyins in a single session of 50NL 6max.

Weed: I did a ton of my SNG grinding stoned this summer and my results were quite impressive. I think this affects your play way less.

Alcohol definitely makes you loose, and lose concentration in general. I play fine while stoned, generally tight, and maybe sometimes a little too passive.

For some reason, I play ok B&M poker when I am drunk but online I spew chips like a mofo. I checkraise with nothing all the time. I stop thinking about my own cards and just "play the player", which is a poor strategy for limit hold em a lot of the time. I raise preflo in late position with almost anything. I 3 bet with hella medium pairs, and AT, KQ hands. Its pretty ridiculous.

When I play live though, I tend to be ordering hella coffee to overcome my drunken handicap. I'll play after drinking live in low limit games (4/8 and below), but its always after a party or something. Its never a plan to go drunk. I never drink anything but coffee, water, and orange juice at the casino.

Last time I danced with the Chiba goddess, I couldn't count outs, frequently forgot which position I was in, and played really passively. I had no interest in beating other people, but I remember thinking "I hope I get lucky."

I play horribly when I am stoned, and I usually play and think poorly for about 2-3 days afterwards. Mary Jane has a powerful lingering effect on me.

MJ turns me into a calling station.

I don't really drink much but from what I've noticed in others it turns them LAG.

I am a SLAG from playing six-handed and being drunk turns me into a LAG. When I play high I'm lucky if I can see my cards correctly so I couldn't really say what style that is.
