I play much better high, I'm usually a little bit too aggro and it takes just enough edge off my aggression and stops the really silly spews. Bad for the rest of my life though so I don't do it much. |

Never tried weed. I imagine it would make me slower and spewier, but who knows. A lot of the top MTT guys smoke on breaks and seem to crush. |

keeps me awake after long hours.
As for if it 'helps' your game,
Really depends on if you are regular smoker or not. As in someone who doesn't smoke regularly will have trouble playing. |

ive played alooooot stoned
not sure if it makes me play better really, feels like i do, i spew much less atleast and play much more diciplined and focused high, i can sit for longer hours and find the game more interesting/play more creative
before playing higherstakes HU matches, like 10/20$+ HU i usually like to smoke to relax myself calm myself down and im pretty sure i play big $ games better high, but overall im not sure.
cant play as many tables either
but been kinda semidepressed last couple of months, then i tend not work well together with weed, so dont smoke to much nowadays, just starts to think in negative loops to much while being high for periods of time when im already downish in life.
so go ahead and experiment with it, if u feel strong psychologically i can see how weed cant hurt ur game much (if ur a regular smoker that is, that dosnt like get superstoned, weednoobs probably will be to lost to grind. if uve smoked for a while u can do pretty much everything high, sometimes i go to the gym high aswell/interact with ppl alot without them even haveing a clue that im alittle stoned) |

Back when I used to play a lot I noticed weed made me play "typical" for how I would normally play. Meaning I could play my standard game which would probably still be a winning game, but I wouldn't really adapt to crush games like I should. I just really wasn't quite as sharp.
But depending on the game that might not really matter much. |

Grindin so hard, Im smashin pussies left and right. | |

Back in the day when borgata room was down stairs, I was taking my very first shots at 25/50, I ended up smokin with couple of the guys in the game during a cig break. When I returned to the table, I was quickly dealt Aces in the SB. I was sitting 20k or so and I ended getting all my money in with "Aces" just to flip over A4 against Aces. I still remember how retarded I felt when I was telling the dealer this isn't my hand. I've never played high since then. |

I turn to a vegetable really quickly after smoking so I tend to avoid it in spots where I need to be alive |
