Apparently meth would be the best one, except for the side affects.
In an interview on NPR the author stated that meth wasn't so much a "high" as a supreme concentration of reality: he claimed you could read a super dense text with ease, or concentrate at a hyper level while on the drug.
One month of meth and Skansky anyone?
(if only we can quit at the end...)

The weed thing isn't exactly right. It's more what the media makes you think. They actually did a small portion study and after just a joint or two people actually drove their car better than without it. So are they really making worse decisions because of it?
I feel like I can play poker just fine while high...

Forget the drugs, but playing while drinking whatever that drink might be is fun, hence the word fun.
I recommend if your going to play for money, play sober as a judge, if your going to get drunk and have fun or get high or whatever, do the free rolls. See this is simple Money= play sober Free roll= Get blasted out your mind and have fun, if you lose you lose nothing but time. Plus on a side note with the way idiot donks play in a free roll, the only way to play is drunk out of your mind, cause their sure as hell are not using their mind with the calls they make.

Sure, cause black coffee acts like a mirror and you can see the cards that you are dealing
I take idoden (prescription) for chronic pain. Pretty used to it by now. just mellows me a bit and makes my pain managable.
I'll have a max of two drinks over 5 hours. Which I easily metabolize. If I drink, it encourages others to drink who might not if others weren't drinking and they might just drink enough to start making bad descisions. (Learned that tip from one of Phil Gordon's books )

I think my posting in that section has decreased by like 500% and no I didn't. I more or less laughed / forgot about the bad beats and kept having fun. (I ended just about even for the session any way...weed doesn't really have a huge affect on your rational thoughts but I was a lot looser looking back on it later)

Coffee in the AM , water at other times. Occasionally I will have a beer or 2 but usually only if im messing around in freerolls.
I do recommend everyone I play against to smoke all the pot and drink all the booze they can handle. 102.7% of the folks who are high will make poor/rash/hasty decisions.
The pot smokers will not even notice and even if they do they won't care. The drunks might notice, 3 hands later and then get all pissed off and go on major tilt. Either way I benefit.

Proscar, prinzide, zocor, acetacylic acid, beta carotine, ascorbic acid, calacium carbonate, magnesium oxide, and the list goes on for seven more lines on the itamin bottle.
