Cartoons help me in poker, I'm distracted by them and do not make unnecessary movements that reduce the stack)

If several tables are open, there is no time to be distracted:)

If I'm bored of poker, I'd rather not play. Boredom is no good for anything...

Focus. Take notes. Watch hands when I'm not involved. Remember certain spots for later.

Most of the time the TV is on, even if I don't follow the program much as my concentration is on the poker.

The only exception is Sunday - when the CC Freerolls start I'm watching NFL Football at the same time!!! Meanwhile, I'm torn by the action, flicking from screen to screen to make sure I don't miss anything.

you know, before I was also doing something else while playing, but then I noticed that this is a bad thing, if you really want to get better and earn real money in poker, no matter how long the game takes, we must maintain concentration and be patient, and play seriously, nowadays, I put on slow music, with the volume low and I concentrate on the game

I am catching myself to get bored when playing online poker. So I start reading the newspaper or watch some TV series online. Of course that does not make my play any better.

What do you do, when playing online poker?
i like to listen song while i'm playing poker.

Poker is more than just a game to me; it's a passion that combines skill, strategy, and excitement. Every hand dealt is a new challenge and an opportunity to test my abilities. I love the thrill of reading my opponents, making calculated decisions, and executing the perfect bluff.

While playing, I can watch the news or listen to music, depending on my mood. Lately, I prefer news more and more, as there is a war in my country and news is something that interests all of us Ukrainians.

Normally watch tv, but as I usually multitable I find it hard to properly concentrate on programmes while playing.

That depends, when I'm playing on a few screens I usually watch a series or something, but when I'm playing on many screens at the same time I prefer to keep my attention focused 100% on the game.

We're cleaning out old legal docs from our file cabinet, so I'm shredding while playing.

Generally I play a maximum of four tables, at least two of them will be freerolls.

I always multi-task, even if it's only listening to music.

While playing, I almost always watch my favourite YouTube channels. I love the streams of famous Ukrainian bloggers and journalists, sometimes I watch news or some interesting films about nature.
