What do you prefer - when you play poker: Music or silence ?

[Jam_V92]

It depends on the mood I have, although I usually play listening to some background podcast

 

[cranberry]

Mostly I play in silence. If the tournament lasts more than 3-4 hours, then I listen to classical music.

 

[MishkaZL]

Sometimes I listen to music during the game. In general, I like different music and it depends on my mood. For example, today I am listening to classical music.

when I play I look at the monitor,a lot of tables do not give to relax,and relax you can not lose,high concentration,during the breaks, coffee and of course favorite music!

 

[vov4ik]

sometimes I listen to music during the game but it is rare if tournaments in the game go long and long then I find it starting and watching sometimes funny shows and I watch and play poker at tournaments so that I can’t get bored!

I have really bad tinnitus...like the scream of jet engines all the time, 24/7, and the way I have learned to deal with it is to try and replace that noise with music that plays in my head, favourite pieces that I know every note of and I find that very soothing, I don't really like headphones etc

 

[Dailon Arroyo Blandon]

I think that playing poker listening to music, watching TV or totally silent will depend a lot on the taste of each person ... the important thing is to feel relaxed and very focused on the game ...!

If it is the weekend I am usually watching a race or a ballgame, it may be a little distracting but it helps keep me from playing hands just because I am bored.

 

[Cloxy]

I have noticed that without music I start thinking a lot and making wrong decisions. So I listen music or watch the funny videos during the play.

 

[tauri103]

the music tends to stress me after 15 or 20 min.I prefer to put a good documentary of historical preferance in the background to help me relax.

 

[Haftus]

Hearing music motivates me very much and sometimes I watch streams, but without anything it would be too boring for me.

 

[hokitheman]

To me it depends on the mood. Somethimes silence deepens focus.

 

[Nano5722]

Depends on the different situations. Of course, some music can help you a lot. Anyway, sometimes this is just OK to play with some TV show.

 

[Steve Deeble]

I normally don’t listen to music while playing usually have a hockey game on the TV.

 

[efranto2286]

Hello community personally I play music relaxes me

 

[bon2great]

how do you play? Music, if so, what?) Or do you concentrate in silence, another option, watch TV?

Sports on TV is my top choice while playing poker

 

[HaroldHouse]

I like some older rock playing in the background but what I usually hear are 3 little girls either laughing or fighting with a little bit of crying mixed in. So I play most of my tournements at 3AM so I just hear them snoring 😊

 

[Backlash]

Silence....Cash Games
Music...Tournies

 

[gwj63]

it depends
most of the time I listen to music but,
I do play in silence too.

 

[RiverLord90]

Definitely music with some nice headphones. It makes me focus and play so much better. My results are also way better with music than without.

 

[jekan85]

I play in the mood when the music when the silence when youtube

 

[Lena M]

Hello.
Music distracts me, and prevents me from concentrating. I prefer daily morning meditation.

 

[bugiardops]

I play poker only for fun. I prefer listening music or make anything that I love when I play poker. Sometimes I let my 4 year old daughter push the buttons of pokerstars app. Take care! Lol​

 

[vox1er]

If you want to win - you have to focus on the game, music and TV distract you

 

[AngelBLR_Poker]

I play without music, because I have to be focused on the game
