I cant help but play poker during classes, all the best tournaments in my buy-in range start in the middle of my school days, it doesnt affect my grades but it does affect how much I listen during class, so I would say its fine but I would want to know what do you guys think about this?

I think you are cheating yourself. You can play after class and have a higher win rate and you will learn more in class.

I don't think it's a good idea. The class will interfere with your concentration on the game, and the game will interfere with your concentration on the class. Poker should be an addition to your life and not compete with your daily activities. Change Poker rooms, change your buy-in level... you'll find more compatible times. But don't compromise your personal life to play.

Theres not really any tournamnets in my buy in range to play during my free time. And my classes are pretty laid back.

That's terrible. Multitasking is good if you're doing things that you're really good at, but during studying you need to focus, it doesn't matter if information is simple for you, just because the way our brain works.

I think you will also be more focused when you play in your free time.
