I'm usually looking at forums or some you-tube funnies to keep me from getting too bored. Sometimes it is riding the stationary bike.

I do have to admit this replying to posts is getting a bit addicting....I just wonder one thing. What the heck is a quality post and who judges that. Is it a rating system...two groans from the admins and its a bad post A smirk and it counts as two posts? Just wondering aloud with my fingers....

Most forums define quality using a computerized formula, there is hardly ever someone reading all the posts and grading them like USDA stamps on meat.

However posts that bend or break the rules get pointed out to the admins, if not caught by the shared coverage of the various fourm moderators who only try to read all the posts in their areas of coverage.

I have no idea of the story the first poster had with railbirds. I have been a member for about 6 weeks and found the administration of the site to be quite fair. I'm no goody 2 shoes, I've had blogs pulled and posts deleted, when I broke a rule. All in all I have found it to be a great site.

Nothing but play poker

What do you do while you play online poker?[/quote

poker is just a hobby for me so it is my entertainment.

The Buddha said, 'When chopping wood, chop wood; when hauling water, haul water."

Really, whenever I try to do something else at the same time I am playing (that is to say, trying to play well), including listening to music, I find that I start concentrating on the game to such an extent that I no longer notice any other distractions. I wont even notice the music playing anymore, or the tv on, or whatever. So I figure why even bother to turn it on in the first place.

Also, all my major wins have come without anything else going on.

Of course, that's when I sit down to play 'serious' poker; we don't always play our a-game, or even want to for that matter-- sometimes you just want to drink some beers and donk around a bit at small stakes. In which case, blast the tunes and get me another one!

yea AG but buddha didn't need wood and water at the same time like most of us do. glad to hear you can loosen up a bit and donk around like most of us do though.

What I do

I like to listen to music, post some posts, or listen to tv as I play. If I am playing 3 or more games at once I usually just focus on the games..

I eat while playing poker.

I will weigh 1000 pounds before I am through so I better get good fast so that I can afford the weight loss surgery!

 

[cheesepie2k7]

I now generally just listen to music as loud as I can, talk to myself and play darts.

I use to multi-table, perhaps 3 or 4 at a time, but I win more money when only playing one at a time as all my concentration is aimed at one place.

I've been known to watch a show with my family, listen to a podcast or throw a Monotonous YouTube video on. In 99% of the situations I am eagle eyed and just have those in the background.

The main stress hormone cortisol tends to be at its lowest during the game. And the more involved the player is in the game, the lower the cortisol level. Playing poker reduces stress levels.So listen to calm music or a TV series.

I just play poker because I feel like it will improve my focus and how much money I can make if there are no distractions.

 

[eberetta1]

While playing poker on my phone, I cannot multitable as easy as the laptop, so I watch tv shows I have watched 1000 times already, so I don't have to pay attention to the tv. I still seem to get premium hands like AA folded for not paying enough attention to the poker game on my phone.

An audiobook, a series, a recording of a poker tournament... in short, something unobtrusive and that doesn't require sharp attention...)

Hi
I just play poker, ...... cook, wash dishes and just clean the apartment.

 

[Newzooozooo]

For the last three years, I've been listening to the news almost always while playing poker. In fact, since the beginning of the war, I listen to the news all the time except for those few hours when I sleep.

 

[Toruk Makto]

I prefer to just play anyway...

 

[oriole]

I watch poker clips.

 

[olejean]

Sometimes even thinking. ))

 

[Bhargav]

I watch movies if I play only one table. multiple tables - only poker

 

[Ruslan L]

I often watch TV during the game, or rather watch YouTube. I also eat a lot during the game, the game gives me an appetite.

 

[monkeytilter]

Concentrate on the games I'm playing, last thing I need to be doing is anything else

I've been binge watching NYPD Blue on Disney+ while playing. Not sure why (inflation?) but back in the day they made a LOT more episodes each season, or the seasons were longer. Anyway, there's a lot to watch.
