Am I right in thinking poppers and amal nitrate is the same stuff?
Apparently so - see you in Ann Summers before next game? |

Was told in my youth that it's known as poppers because it pops several thousand brain cells each time you take a snort. I didn't believe it would have any effect so took a huge breathe out and then sniffed it up like a goodun.
From that day to this my poker has never been multi-dimensaional. Damn that amal nitrate.

Mint sauce has a similar affect on me to cocaine i.e. makes me behave like a tw*t. If I'm playing on a Sunday I have to be very careful about what I consume for my roast dinner. I'm actually pro-performance enhancing drugs in professional sport. I haven't concluded my research yet, but I think from what my team of flying monkeys have told me so far, that as far as ones long term health is concerned, they're definitely a good idea. In poker however, the odd cup of strong Turkish coffee is sufficient to keep one alert. I don't think speed or cocaine can have a positive affect. You can't possibly keep track of what's occurring at your table if you're bouncing off the walls. It also tends to irritate your opponents which is never a good idea.
See Stu Ungar's poker career for the pros and cons of cocaine abuse.

they shouldve left me on your table trace as he seemed to quieten down a little when I started on him. It wasnt just after the dinner break either he was obviously of his head from the start of the comp but each to their own imo. If he was using poppers and coke how the hell did he keep his concentration??

WOW, and still the dealer did nothing? Why would the dealer do anything? He's probably gone by now anyway. |

Amyl nitrate became known as "poppers" because they came in a glass phial wrapped in cotton wool which one had to snap causing the popping sound which released the sniffable contents, rather like smelling salts but with alleged sexual benefits....  |
