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.
