I try not to do anything and not to be distracted by anything.I only allow soft music or a humorous series that has little meaning.The neighbors get bored sometimes,and while I'm playing, they start stomping their feet like they have a herd of elephants there.

Relaxing / chill out music is my best friend.
Sometimes it can be same flash games to play next window, but it's to rare. Usually happens when the tounnament is ending (2-3 hours) and I want to go to bed, but have to play)

When I m playing online poker I try to concentrate to maximum every hand I played

I usually just play poker or listen to music.

No TV, web series or anything, just to allow the best possible focus!

Music and follow all the hands , the raises , the calls.. all of this behind the sunglasses

Either music or silence

If it's a slow game which most of them are i listen to my favorite blues disc,sometimes i'll read the paper

hi.I play with my tablet, so I can do a lot of things at once.I usually play and watch TV.

Depends on how may tables I am playing at one time. If I am playing 6 or more I just play poker. If I play one or two I watch tv or read while playing.

Since I bring everything I need before the tournament, my table is like a small market.I have everything I need and don't need. So I drink juice, coffee ... eat snacks ... And if I'm bored while playing, it's always my cat that I keep in my lap.I play with her until the better game starts.

I like to smoke hookah, and listen music

What do you do, when playing online poker?

I listen good music like chillstep

i usually watch youtube or netflix while playing

Uuuuuuh, Play poker?

Netflix or Youtube on the tv. Some good snacks and juice to drink. Ready to go.

Until now I never got bored of poker. I watch the stream of Pokerstars on Twitch, there are many interesting things in that broadcast.

I play on my phone, visit cardschat or browse the internet.

If I'm playing only one table a like to listen to a podcast or watch youtube videos that are not taking all my attention, 4+ tables I only listen to music while playing. I can't concetrate if I need to talk to someone while I'm playing so most of the time I'm really focused on my hands and at the tables

I try to dedicate my whole attention. However if I have 'free' time I would watch TV shows.

Sometimes I listen to sports on TV or music in the background. Mostly, however, I try to focus on the cards and analyze the situation at the tables. Focusing your attention is the most important thing in poker

I always play with the television on watching the news and drinking mate or coffee until I have dinner at my desk when I am in online tournaments

I basically try not to do anything when I play as I focus almost 100% on gaming, but sometimes I watch TV while playing.

Tv is usually on a program I don’t need to focus on, if it’s a freeroll I’m happy to do some work while playing. Leagues that I play in get my full concentration...ie cc, SA poker leagues etc

I try to concentrate in the game so I wont miss important things, it works over all. Since I get easily distracted and If I start doing something else ill come back to folded aces or something. also it helps to pay attention to your opponents tendencies while your not in hands so that you don't get bored easily. since its online and you can easily see everyone chip count, that helps also knowing what and how they bet with what they have.

Coffee, cigaretes and music 😉

I watch youtube or other poker streamers while playing. helps pass the time while waiting for the next hand.
