Adderall and Online Poker

[DCWGaming]

I dont have ADD or anything, but its pretty common nowadays for adderall to be taken to help complete alot of homework, stay up late and study, etc.

I've never actually tried the stuff, and am cautious to do so. A friend gave me a couple the other day and I am considering trying it. From what I've been told, and what I've read, this drug seems like it would be the equivelant of steroids for poker.

Helps your concentration, lets you sit and fold 85% of your hands easily, makes you want to be productive for hours and hours on end. I've pretty much read that one aderall pill can make you play your A-game for 6-12 hours and enjoy it.

If this is true, the EV of taking these meds is ridiculously high... I play poker professionally, and average about 150-200$ an hour doing so. My only problem lately has been that it has been extremely difficult playing full-time hours.


Anybody do this regularly? I'd love someone to respond with some personal experience.

Negative side effects from long term use? Short term use?

If I were to like it and wanted to do it regularly for work, would 5 times a week be overboard? Should I restrict it to weekends?



Oh yeah, and does it have any negative side effects when mixed with THC? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]


Thx all

One common side affect from Wikipedia: "decreased sexual desire and/or ability (in males)" I hope thats enough to keep you from doing this.

Haha, I guess I'll have to see about that part. I should have enough of an... apetite to withstand it

Technically, pot does the same thing. But Sex, Pot, and Poker are still my favorite things (in order).

Is your health worth the extra money? I think your getting a little greedy and stupid. I make around what you make, and that is VERY good.

I've thought of using this stuff too(and I have ADD), but in the end it's not worth it. Why pollute your body?

Haha idiot

OP,

My argument against it - gl playing without it after you start. I have a good amount of friends who can't study without it.

My question was how much does it pollute your body.

You obviously dont have an answer

Thanks for the help bro, that was great.

Because your friends do it, it makes it safe and ok.

Supposedly meth is great for playing poker and doing homework. It keeps you awake and alert and helps you lose weight too! I mean Hitler gave it to his troops, so it must be good.


BTW adderall is addictive FYI

Sorry bro, I dont know how much it destroys your body. Were you hoping for a doctor to respond? Or another crackhead?

Wtf are you so aggressive about this for? Are you tom cruise or something?

Right now, as far as my health goes, i dont have anything to distinguish adderall from a [censored] diet coke. Try not to reply if you arent going to be helpful.

BTW caffeine is addictive


*EDIT*

Sorry ginko, i hadnt gone through your previous posts yet. Now that I have, I know you're a worthless troll. I'll ignore you better from now on. later [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

2 things here:

1) you are overestimating the effect of aderral. for one thing, it's not a wonder drug, the conscious effect is actually pretty subtle.

2) it does rule. i take it as often as possible. I'm no doctor, but it can't be worse for you than caffeine. As with everything, just don't do it every day.
