Need Help - Staking/Smoking Pot Question

That said, I think I probably make some mistakes because I'm high, but I also think I make some plays I wouldn't have otherwise which are +EV for sure.

Also it keeps me sane, and I think this is the number one issue. If it helps me handle bad beats, etc. while multi-tabling and not tilting, it's +EV to me overall even if it makes me slightly worse at any individual decision (which I don't think it does)

agree with this word for word

assuming you get up and are stoned most of the day, you'll play pretty badly in the time it takes to get used to only getting stoned after your session

and thats the last ill say because im getting a cold sweat thinking about it

cant decipher this no matter how sober i am

[Rekwob]

ok, ill try to explain

you have your routine for the day, say, you do a few things in the morning then start your tourneys and start getting stoned.

you get told you have to change this routine, so that you dont start getting stoned until after your session. assuming you've been doing this a while, for the first week or so, your session will be hard to get through because you're used to being stoned by then

or maybe thats just my experiences of when ive gone somewhere i cant smoke or not been able to pick up and decided to play poker anyway, and it doesnt happen to anyone else or maybe it only makes sense if you give up completely

[jgunnip]

The only time I've ever played an mtt high I won a $2 triple shootout or something.

but that is irrelevant here obv. It's staker's money and if he doesn't feel comfortable staking when the stakee is going to be playing high at times then the staker should cut off the deal.

ignoring the issue of whether pot affects your play or not, my solution would be to cancel the deal and renegotiate. If you want to make the same deal, do it, otherwise don't.
