Default Re: Poker and Drug Testing

The OP is absolutely correct!

Most people would say that the best poker of alltime is Stu Unger and he was a cokehead. Coincidence? I think not.

If poker is going to be taken seriously as a competitive sport it is integral that we have a governing body make sure that people aren't taking coke or shooting heroin during the games.

Do not even get me started on Mariuana either. I have heard rumors that a lot of these online pros smoke weed during their sessions and they are all amazing players.

Drugs give people an unfair advantage and we need to eradicate our game before people start thinking that poker players are just a bunch of degenerates.
