just play more table to be all time focus

i watch tv series ) , help me pass the time ! sometimes it helps me , if i lose i stop watching that show , so i play more cautious and i had good results , even if i dont pay atention to players

There is no way to concentrate on the game...

The issue of concentration on the game is not as simple as it seems. There are always many distractions. To concentrate, you need to be able to rest and switch to other things. But when you play, you multi-tabl - nothing should distract, no music, no people, nothing.

Listening to music generally helps me. Other important thing is to not have too many distracting things around me.

I don't have any specific ritual, but listening to music certainly makes me calmer.
I don't have a preferred gender, I tend to vary.

The music is great. I would also advise you to turn off the messenger phone and not watch any movies. This is very important and will give you the opportunity to play better.

In different ways, if before the tournaments, then I try to spend time with my family, surround myself with everything that I like, and if during the tournament I listen to my favorite music and it gives strength.

When I really want to be focused when I’m playing, I prefer to play in silence and in every hour I take break and go to another room and take a rest for a couple of minutes.

Well, when I have time to play, I try to leave my room well prepared for nothing. Take my concentration off.

Ani Lorak's songs used to help. I don't use music right now. Inspiration comes naturally. Although over the years, I've come to the conclusion that it all comes down to luck. If there is a map, you only need to correctly manage a good situation.

same, for cash games I listen to classical music, for free roll tournaments, Rock and roll.

I try to be alone, without any commitment during the hours I play, and also with music that relaxes me so as not to be too stimulated

I love listening to the sounds of the jungle around me, but it's not always possible... And when it does, I cover myself with music that relaxes me, but despite everything, it's damn.
Maybe it's time to record the jungle sounds and play them back to me when needed.

I always begin to play poker with a cup of coffee or some iced tea. They help me concentrate to play and I feel my actions is very clear and I can reduce my mistakes. Listening to music is also help me a bit but not much.

Headphones on my head with music that I like helps me the best, no distraction from outside world, only poker.

I used to listen to music while playing, it calms me down and if I'm not lucky then the music helps.

When I play, I watch movies. It helps me pass the time of the game. In poker, you still fold more than you call.

In order to concentrate on the game, it must be the only activity you are doing, you must be motivated by the desire to play and enjoy poker. Your integral health must be fine, you must rest and have clear objectives with your games.
Greetings

I think it's still a question of motivation. when you take pleasure in playing and want to win. it is easier to stay focused. I like to put a video on youtube in the background of the documentary style or other to help me stay calm and to put into perspective when I suffer a bad beat.

before the game I try to go outside get some fresh air and tune in to a game session

Before playing the game, maybe you should consider listening to podcasts it helps you a lot when approaching a game. Cardschat has a new podcast maybe you want to check it out!

To help me focus on the hand I'm playing, I will talk it out -- out loud even.
To help mask distractions, I play soothing sounds like rain, railroad sounds, forest sounds and so on.

Well ... at the beginning it was hard for me to concentrate ... and when I played only a tournament or a cash table it was also difficult for me to concentrate because there was not much action ... but now I play 4 cash tables and that generates lots of action so I'm always focused ...!

Until recently I had nothing but for some time I listen to music on headphones

Hello.

I try to limit my play each day to one or two MTTs. That way, I am not tired from too much play and I am prepared to sit for 6 to 9 hours in one.

Hello.
On the contrary, music only distracts me. I meditate, and meditation is most conducive to my concentration. In addition, thanks to meditation, I always have a good mood.

Me being alone with my cat. And watching something inconsequential on TV. Now, if my girlfriend is hanging around me, I will surely lose right away. She talks to me all the time and I can never concentrate. I have lost many hands due to her constant talk, I try to isolate myself from her words, but it is impossible!

I don't concentrate in any way, as I am, so I play. Concentration is one of the most important rules of poker.

Water, coffee n jazz (mostly J. Coltrane and B. Holiday)

just a little meditation when I'm tired ...

It's hard for me to concentrate on playing, my TV is on all the time. But a cigarette and a cup of black tea with lemon help me. It's easier for me to concentrate.

I like to put good music that relaxes me when I am going to start a game session, it could be electronic music or relax music and soundtracks type, when I already have a little time I like to listen to hip hop or something that motivates me more.

It is very important to close all social networks when playing so as not to have distractions and to be focused on our game

Listening to music generally, but not when playing poker I can't calm down 100% haha

I am fine, otherwise I would be in good spirits I would not play

Listening music. Some chill music.
And of course, it has to be some instrumental, no voices please
Have to focus, so it's obvious why instrumental music
