Music or No Music?

[SPANKYSN]

If I listen to the music that I enjoy most, I get too focused on the music and not the plays at the tables. I sometimes listen to light classical music, or just flutes....the kind of stuff they play when you get a massage.

I often listen to the radio too. Unfortunately (or not) I cant play poker without music or without conversation with some friends on Facebook

I always listen to music when I play - but then again, I listen to music while studying or playing chess, so it's not something that distracts me.

I play in silence, the music distracts me a little ... experimented, it turned out that the results show better without music))

Music to relax

I prefer to play in silence or listening to some nice melodic tune in background, I noticed it somehow helps me to concentrate and don't get distracted by anything else. Here is some examples I usually listen to, maybe they will be useful to someone

I'm probably responsible for half of the views for this one My favorite.

This one is pretty new for me, listened only a couple of times so far

If you have anything similar, feel free to share with me, thanks

I also watch the film in tournaments. Otherwise, just sit down and play a boring occupation. On the tables with cash, there is no time to look at something. Here you need to take care of your competitors.

Music tends to drown out the background noise of my girlfriend..

All depends on my mood, and I have changes all the time

I'm the opposite, when I play I tend to play better when I it's really quiet, even with a low volume music would make my focus go away.

When I play poker, then I listen to music, music does not bother me when I play, but on the contrary helps to keep my head from tilting during the game, and I turn on and listen to music with every game!

I'm listening classic music during playing poker. This is great, try too

 

[Trick1988]

I enjoy listening to music while I play. Fills the time between hands. I think I do fairly well tuning it out when I get involved in a hand.

 

[Trick1988]

If you have a hard time focusing on one thing at a time, like me. Music allows me to be able to concentrate on just poker.

I do not like to listen to music because it disturbs me. I feel like singing, and I end up singing and when I see I've already done something wrong in the game. So I avoid listening to music when I'm playing.

It depends on the player, in my case it is not necessary, but from time to time I use it to not get bored

listen to the radio during the game.

I have tried listening music and of course my favorite and it is very nice. It makes a more friendly enviroment for me which is more positive factor for the game.

 

[MrAlabama]

Personally, I feel that classical music puts me in the right frame of mind. Calming, with mental alertness and creativity seems to be very beneficial in my opinion.

 

[velho_leo]

music always

 

[rckstr2b]

Peace and quiet.... I get distracted by easily by music(because I love it).
Hopefully when I get more proficient at poker, I’ll be able to integrate music back in.

 

[max entropy]

I prefer music with no lyrics and the equalizer fixed for crystal clear bass. sometimes I listen to high volume.It's better when you truly feel it.
The best system is the soundsystem

 

[Fordeverest]

In my opinion, listening to the poker game and music in the head will be perfect, so you have to choose to have a perfect "effect

 

[Thenightrain]

Yeah I think music helps. Maybe not at the time but good to have some tunes that motivate you or keep you awake.

no music for me
