What music do people like to listen too whilst playing?

Does it affect your game?

Clubland type beats are my favourite at start of session, keeps me upbeat. I generally just listen to anything on my computer that I would listen to normally.

Sometimes when a good song is on I forget to concentrate on poker and do stupid stuff like check back A-high flops.

I listen to all kinds of music, sometimes only instrumentals, and also to interesting motivating poker podcasts...

Is it like driving? faster music makes you go faster, like play more aggressive? classical would make you a tag fish?

I listen to all kinds, my fav is heavy metal but at the moment, while playing in a Micro Millions tourney I'm listening to Phallus Dei by Amon Duul which is Kraut Rock.

blast that shit. nothing keeps you from tilting like tunes do. i tend to opt for electrohouse. if i start playing rhcp or something i inevitably start singing along which is probably not great for my concentration lol

Metal, punk, classic rock,

Earphones inserted, live table. Does not help me play better but does help me to narrow my focus by getting centered on it.

I downloaded my CD's to google music and can play them from any computer. Lots of blues, early R&B, hours of jazz and a little seventies rock. Sometimes you tube, they are putting full albums on there now and you can listen to them before they get busted out for copying. Another option.

Nothing like the creepy foreshadowing of sitting down at the final table and The Doors comes on in my headphones with "The End".

It was true - busted out in 8th. At least my chips went to my buddy (whom I have a stake in) and he went on to take second.
