I enjoy a distractioin when playing like listening to music or
put on a movie. I get tired staring at the screen waiting to play,
waiting for someone to comeback to the table cause they didn't
sit out before they went to t he lavatory or out for a smoke.
Especially Poker Stars which gives more time for a player to
time out, instead of sitting them out after a reasonable time.

Many in my group skype while playing the evening tournents and
take turns playing a song, or just jabbering like a home game.

I also put the information tab on instead of the chat choice when'
I'm in a tournament to keep the distraction of games and hands that
often come up during the game to keep track where I'm at, at all times.

Most irritating is when someone skypes me during a game which
pops up over my bet bar at the most inconvieant times, of course.

Players berating another player is a particular distraction which
I just have to step into and try to difuse the situation.

Namaste...jim

All write about someone that prevents him to play poker. They did not interfere. Very rarely it happens by accident

Happens the wife distracts, there is a child, the mobile phone calls at the wrong time, guests also at the wrong time can come..... Much everything distracts me.
Even CC when I look through during the game - too distracts. : D

I'm usually on the weekends or in the evening (night) ... So nothing particularly distracting. Still I am trying to play the background music or the radio.

Well, I, personally get distracted mostly by my mom and friends. Mom is always nagging me with some stuff, and friends always start messaging me when I play poker, lol.

I try to play at times where there are no distractions in my house, however my wife is the one that distracts me the most when I play, always talking about online poker

Certainly my family distracts. But it is not the reason of losses.

To take for example a game offline, there people constantly talk, joke and it doesn't disturb them.

It is necessary to be able to switch, and then the result will seems to me.

I play better when I'm alone, but I don't blame anyone if they distract me.

It is necessary to ensure a quiet game, explain that you are not disturbed at trifles, to explain that it is important for you.

what would you do if spongebob sqaure pants and dee dee from dexters lab walked in at the same time.

and started commenting on your poker game?
I would consider laying off the drugs.
, then offer them a beer and tell them to STFU. :)

The main factors is the phone, skype and nephew :D The rest of is the little things, and the music does not distract, but rather sets up the game.
