When I play I am usually watching TV so I don't listen to anything. If it during tourney time then I like to listen to rounders radio. They play alot of good stuff on there.

I listen to Rounders radio.

Awesome music, good discussions and freerolls thrown in to boot...

Would recommend it to anyone.

Tonight it's hip hop, though depending on mood it can also be psytrance. Or commercial dance. Or black and death metal - that can actually be quite soothing.

I listen to my wife, which tell me that I sit over three hours on the PC and now I have stop to play. That is that what I listen when I play poker. I think to hear music is better then a crying wife. Or not? :)

Have a good time,

It's all about the classic rock and the slower hiphop. It just depends on the mood I'm in or I might change during a tournament depending on my stack and if Im playing aggressive or conservative.

I think music can have a huge impact on your playing style. I'm looking to experiment more on music and how it affects my play; specifically, my table aggression.

I've found that when multi-tabling, I like speed metal. Dethklok has been my band of choice in the past. Dragonforce is also good for that. Alternately, industrial-type metal like Killing Joke is good.

Lately, I've been listening to nothing but classical music, and I've been on my biggest heater since I started. (coincidence?) I think it keeps me calm, keeps my aggression in check, and facilitates big laydowns.

I usually listen to some music that has a badass beat to it, like Rap or Rock. Lately I've started watching TV shows on youtube such as seinfeld and for some reason I tend to play better and slower when I watch something in the background. Perhaps I don't concentrate as hard enough and play more loosely (normally I'm a really tight player). Watching the wsop Main Event or other such tournaments online really helps me get in the mood to play some winning poker.
