oh right guys, i am heading for a poker tournament tomorrow night and i am contemplating putting on heavy dosage of IH… i wonder if it will make my bluffs more convincing or make other player’s bluff more telling… has anyone tried that? i’ll report back if something unusual happened or if people are interested 🙂 ---

never tried it myself but it sounds like a very worthwhile experiment. if you know what chair you are sitting in you might even show up early and discreetly spray the table in front of the other seats for added effect. spaceland could probably be used to good effect as well, provided you keep it away from your own nose it could cause everyone else to lose focus during play. on the flip side, keep the other players away from high levels of TAF but it may improve your own focus. ---

If you’re immune to the effects go ahead. But if you aren’t you’ll basically fall on your sword. I think enhanced intimidation with androstenone would be a better bluff than encouraging verbal diarrhea and friendly deep thoughts. Piss off a few cocky gamblers and they’re more likely to make mistakes. Again you need to be pretty immune to the effects to keep a clear head. ---

Sounds like it might work, lol. Keep us posted on how it goes. ---

it actually worked pretty well, i ended up 5th in the tournament, which was surprisingly good.. considering that i am just a little above average and there are definitely some pros around. (for those who played, i was up by quite a bit at the final table, played pretty tight today, but called some dood’s all-in… had a pocket AK… made a two pair AAKK on the turn… and that dood sucked it out with a river flush… oh well) anyway, back to the mones. i noticed that firstly i was a lot more chill than usual, not terrible excited over anything, in fact, i was telling people to relax and take it easy… like all the time.. lol.. this must be an effect of p74… no doubt about it. i think it is a good thing. as for IH, i noticed no visible self-effect but a girl was very chatty… so is another guy. for a while there is this hyper-alpha talk-so-goddamn-much guy at the final table (in stark contrast with my “coolness”) that might have drown down some potential conversations. overall i will give a 7/10 for how mones affected my performance tonight… where 5/10 is a neutral… so that makes it above average!! not bad for a first attempt.
