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.

    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.
