    I rarely play when not under the influence, and I do Alright. There have been some messy ones though where cant remember if I was up or down on the nights session.

    I have fallen asleep in the middle of a tourney and woken up when the tourney was well finished.
    I have been so trashed once that I had to put one hand over one eye as I was seeing about 4 screens.
    Once I got disconnected from a tourney ( not this site ) and I contacted 24h chat support.  OMG. When I got up the next day, the whole transcript was there in all its glory. The more I read, the more I cringed. I ssooooo abused that poor fella.

    I sent an email in with an apology, I felt so bad.

    Sounds like Mahony prefers to be like Father Jack :-D

    I'll often have a beer or two whilst playing, and a bowl of peanuts of course, but I don't think I've ever played completely spannered.

    I had a lost weekend during SPT, had a good glow all weekend, had 50 odd pounds left in my account decide to play the last £48 satty, qualified made it to day 2, knew I was goin to have a wee sesh before it started so I set my alarm just in case, started at 6pm was oot at 6.01pm got £150 in heads, decided to play the Sunday major £24 satty, qualified, by this point I was strugglin to see the screen, got put oot and in ma drunken haze I somehow pressed the rebuy button for 100 smackeroos, nearly had another heart attack, somehow managed to cash for £262.50, If I hadn't been on the Vodka Shandies would never have rebought so all in all a good result.

    Hold your hands up if you ever post on the Forum while drunk.

    Actually this was 4 days after the event. Got fried literally on the Sat 5th.

    But yes forum posting whilst drunk is always good for a following mornings panic ridden OMG what did I say hunt through the posts to see who you've got to PM an apology to.

    I noticed when this thread was brought back up it had 23 views, I know the Forum was in its infancy back in 2009 but it shows how much the Forum has progressed in 12 years and long may it continue
