    Possible 0 EV Cover

    Friend told me you can smoke e-cigs with non-nicotine flavors. Has anyone thought of doing this to counter the perception that APs usually don't smoke?

    Then you have to share the table with some smelly, disgusting, possibly degenerate. I prefer heads up anyways, and I’ll say something rude to someone who has the stench of tobacco on him.

    Perhaps the Dipshit can enlighten us on why we should welcome the 5 pack a day smokers to sit next to us.

    Hilarious you should mention this. I took to smoking an E-cig for this very reason. It would come in handy in many situations. Contemplating a rare index play? Take a long drag on the e-cig. Shoe goes bad and it's time to Wong out? Excuse yourself to smoke your e-cig outside. Pretty soon you're no longer smoking an e-cig for cover, you're smoking because you're addicted! Being a gambler addicted to a substance isn't bad cover, it greatly adds to your degenerate act!

    Contrary to the studies which claim no negative effects, you will feel the effect of the vapor on your lungs, it made it much harder for me to regulate my lung capacity when swimming.
    Like a fool, I smoked nicotine vapor, not just the flavored stuff you mention, so of course I was soon addicted. After about a year I quit the junk and won't touch another nicotine smoking product for as long as I live. I wouldn't recommend it, even for cover. 1 star.

    Good for you. Congratulations on quitting. It is the best thing you could possibly do.

    Anyone who contemplates smoking for cover is an idiot.

    Guilty as charged, Freightman! Link shows even non-nicotine e-cigs harmful!

    True, but many years ago, I saw a guy in AC do it very well.

    He'd play a non-smoking table, then get up and light a cig at the shuffle. He'd smoke it away from the table, but close enough to backcount. As soon as the count was positive, he'd put out the cig, sit down, and play.

    If the asshole was backcounting my table, I would hope that I had just ingested that chilli I earlier described, with deviled eggs and beer. I woul$ protect myself from that tobacco stench by the aura created, just for the occasion.

    Small sample size to be sure, but I'd say half of the APs I know smoke. Not sure who has that perception.

    Hold on there freighter, do you not like to sit on your deck smoking cigars, especially with your sons?

    That is true, however, as Canadians, there are ample supplies of good Cubans, and the pastime is limited to special events - such as - I feel like it.

    There is nothing worse than having to sit near someone smoking a nasty cigar. Someone smoking cigarettes doesn't really bother me.
    And smoking (or just lighting one up and pretending to smoke) is excellent for wonging out etc...I believe you can wong out more often with less scrutiny from the pit.
    And you end up looking like a good guy...just say something like I need a cigarette but I will step away from the table.
