victor is the man. i wish i knew he was drunk when i was playing against him earlier on ub, but i don't think we clashed too much and he seemed to be playing well.

He's good enough at holdem that drunk or not he's still formidable. Raxx on the other hand.. he had to ask me if it was A-5 or 2-7... 1/2 an hour in.

Edit. Raxx should clearly have been Razz.

How many times do I have to tell you Victor, only play 2-7 while your drunk - its easy money as long as your not sober.

About 99% of my LHE play these days is at least with a pretty good buzz if not drunk (though I am a reasonably controlled drunk), and I'm glad you came back from the losses early, but I think you're asking for trouble if you don't have the discipline to step away when your roomate, who happens to play well, argues that you're making a mistake by playing drunk in a game you don't regularly play. It's not like you found a dream seat against players you know well in a game you have a high degree of confidence in and are exploiting a huge edge -- you're using your natural skill and accumulated knowledge to play and have fun. I think this is dangerous to one's bankroll; and I'd especially like my roommate to force a break with an offer to hang out and drink / do something entertaining (rather than lecture me as I may be doing here). Though my original advice may have seemed mild (and to some, absurdly aggressive for adults sharing a house / apartment), I might actually be more aggressive and try to physically stop a roommate from doing what you were doing depending on the relationship. I might, like veganmav suggested, prevent play for 12 hours or more and deal with the consequences later.
