I play from both my house and my friends house, and I when I play Omaha at my friends house, I've usually been drinking (5-10 beers, etc...).

Here are my stats from both places:

My House:

12,000 hands
Games Won: 7%
Showdowns Won: 67%
Flops Seen: 37%
Win % if flop seen: 24%


My Friend's House:

2,000 hands
Games Won: 15%
Showdowns Won: 73%
Flops Seen: 54%
Win % if flop seen: 27%

I know the sample is very small for my buddy's house, but I just thought it was strange. Probably just something stupid. Although I am much more aggressive when drunk. Let me know what you think.

I think 5-10 beers is too many for most people. Sometimes one drink helps me get relaxed but 5-10 impacts my judgment.

No offense, but my first question would be how drunk are your buddies?


I can still play well after 2-3 drinks. After 10, I'd be eating the chips.
I don't have much of a tolerance.
If everyone else is drinking and you have the highest tolerance/clearest thought process, keep right on cracking 'em open -- its like siamese twins entering a three-legged race.

I'm sorry, I guess I should clarify. I play striclty online at both my house and my buddie's house. But we play halo 2 for a few hours drinking brews, and then I jump on and play for 2-3 hours of multitabling once I'm done on Halo. It's probably just luck, with such a small sample, I just thought the huge difference in stats was funny.

I'm much better at Halo 2 when drunk also. Especially the trash talking. I think I told a guy tonight that I f*ed his mother and shat in her mouth tonight while she hummed the theme song to the A-Team, or something along those lines.

My roommate's fraternity brother was too...

When he was sober, I could tie/beat him by one or so.....stone cold drunk he was a fucking badass...I'd get maybe 2 kills.

same thing happens here
my friend will put a dip in and then start to beat the **** out of us and say that it brings out his A GAME. see him doing both at the same time just eats us alive. and for poker hes only played live games drunk but he actually does the same or so as he always does.

who knows
