This is day 2. Again, short & simple. ![]()
5mcg Neroli scented P102 (1 spray each on both forearms):
29 year old white male, dressed casually
At a poker table, late night, approx. 40 minutes after application-
Self effects are again slightly calm and quite focused.
Being in a much closer proximity to others, I notice that men (young and old) are indifferent as they sit next to me, while one comments on a “nice cologne” in general to the table. ![]()
The only woman at the table is the dealer, who I believe might be in her 40’s.
She looks at me without a smile. Indifference.
Everyone appears to be quiet, not too lively, which is somewhat unusual, though there is no tension.
One hour and 30 minutes after application-
The table is quiet and calm. Everyone seems contemplative, deliberate and intent on every hand.
I seem to thinking quite clearly. I feel very focused, especially with everyone being so quiet.
3 tables away (about 12 ft. down), a table is quite chatty. The table next to us seems to be quieter though, with only the dealer making attempts to converse.
Two hours and 30 minutes after application-
2 people have been eliminated from the tournament at our table, though neither of them complained.
Every victory at our table has been a rather humble one, which is quite unusual.
There is a sense of calmness mixed with a “secret” competitiveness at our table.
Our new dealers have been so quiet and monotone, they are hardly noticeable when they are rotated amongst the tables.
Approx. four hours after application-
Every decision I make to play or throw away a hand seems to come more naturally to me. This is good. ![]()
I usually run deep in a tournament anyhow, though my focus seems to be spot on in crucial decisions.
My opponents are very hard tonight though. Bluffing is more difficult than usual with them. They seem just as contemplative as I am at this table. ![]()
Chatter is sporadic, light and friendly.
Five hours after application-
Everyone is chatty as the effects seem to have worn-off.
I am not as focused. Tension has risen as we approach the final table.
Conclusion-
I believe that P102 has been a double-edged sword tonight:
It has improved my focus, and that of my opponents’. ![]()
I might do well to spray a dose closer to my nose next time. ![]()
More to come on P102…
