Live streaming is causing a massive resurgence in poker popularity

Adderall is a massive problem and a PED for modern professional poker players

Is there a ped problem in poker are guys taking adderall? Yes, huge problem. No, actually there are guys who have done that. I think Adderall is something that some players are dependent on for short periods of time it works but then they become so dependent when one stops working what they end up just becoming is what we call drug addicts.

This is widely reported in the poker community as a common way for players to maintain focus during grueling tournament schedules.
