distraction
question for experienced players. players that have seen situations b4 and pretty much know what there gonna do (most of teh time) without much thought. (most of the time)
do you think having a tv beside the computer you watch while your playing cards is holding you back? Do you think listening to music while playing does the same? should it be like a library no distractions...and give 100 percent of your attention. ? im sure other people do it im just wondering if any of you have had better success when you turn the music and tele off |

lol, I'm in a college dorm usually playing, so when I play in the common room sometimes someone will watch over my shoulder for a few minutes. It's hilarious how many "you folded that???"'s I hear. I don't want to spend a lot of time explaining that A9o UTG is not a good hand and that 33 does not warrant pushing all the way all-in just because I have a pair.

Yes, I was really excited when I got here and found out that a ton of kids in our dorm played poker at home, said most of them played 50nl. Then we get about to start and everyone wants to buy in for $5, one asks if we're doing 1 or 2 blinds, and we get the kid wanting credit for his 6-card straight. So you can imagine hearing people like that asking why I'm folding so much lol. Fortunately at least there are enough people on campus that play to have a weekly game, but this is all 4 years plus a grad student and another kid who already graduated and just has a house within a minute of campus. Oh well, I'm getting a lot better playing online and there's plenty of people to talk with who understand poker here

lol if only they had that much money. One kid actually challenged me to a $20 HU match and I accepted so fast only to find out he was just kidding, he thought 20 was WAY too much to play for just one HU and that I'd never in a million years say yes lol.
