quick walk - wife insists I don't sit on machine ALL the time, toilet of course (although at my age this is on demand not necessarily 5 min break)
Drink I can get anytime (some players take so long and if I'm not in hand it's OK)

Good for you! Me? I cant stop...

I smoke,pee or run to the nearest store to buy more cigs.
Or
just browse the internet and check my losing hands to know what i did wrong.

Sometime i'm stuck on the chair because i'm playing cash games.

Talk to the other players. You can find out a lot about them when they're on a break and you'd be surprised what kind of information they'll give up about their game away from the table. Also a good time to spread some disinformation about hands you've played and didn't show.

Use the restroom almost every break. I hold it, can't miss a hand.

In a break my recommendation is relaxation , meditation those five minutes trying to stay focused and project the game as it is playing , think of all the moments of the game, and learn to master the mind so that it does not dominate us with outbursts silly game

In tournaments Live get something to eat . The food is good for your nerves .. If this does not help and you have a bad situation and bad luck , we in Serbia say : Take it and laid a gipsy girl for breaking lose (that is joke) :) )))):cool:

Could be getting some coffee, or use the bathroom, or just play cashgames and wait for the tournament to start again :)

Use your time to make a little exercise for the body too.

It's essential! ;)

During the break can check your opponents at the table on statistic sites, to understand with whom you are dealing.

To make coffee, to smoke, to go to the toilet something to eat. To analyze the situation in the tournament. Plan the game for the next hour.

I smoke a cigarette at the balcony - I can`t smoke in my house - and go to the toilette. Sometimes I also smoke during run game time, for examole when I win a good pot and stay safely.

On Break

On my breaks I like to keep the blood flowing, so I will get up walk around. I like to go out into the casino to watch some of the table games if I am playing live. If I am playing online I try to get things prepared... refill my drink, go to the bathroom etc.
