Sometimes I also watch series when the sessions are very long, lately I was watching Dexter, sometimes music and I also like to talk to myself at that time

When I'm playing just a few tables, I like to put on a TV series or movie during the game.

If I play and it's boring then I play 2 or 3 tables. Then I have some to do while on one table take longer. I do nothing else then play.

If I have a long session ahead, I make myself some coffee, eat something, and watch a movie.

With poker I also play blackjack hands or slots because in poker you don't get action every hand and I bored easily
Note - I'm not a gambler when I play slots and blackjack i play only small hands not like dengenrate gambler

I like listening to music while playing poker; it calms me down a lot and helps me concentrate better.

But now I want yo watch a video or show or a movie or twitch or YouTube at the same time while I play poker . Or also read dome articles or write posts . But mostly I like watching videos and movies .

Listening to music and watching videos, especially funny ones, to try and keep my spirits up even after a bad beat.

Yes, I usually do a lot of things besides poker. I read the news on Telegram, read the news on our forum, analyze NBA and MLB games (and read sports news), sometimes talk to friends in Steam chat, and check the schedule of poker tournaments in various poker rooms. :)

There's always something on TV in the background, sometimes I watch it if there are few tables.
I usually listen to music and sometimes I surf the net a little.

I listen to sports(mostly TSN) or music is always on in the background. Other then that I'm paying attention to poker as paying attention helps one be a winning player.

Cheers!!!

I always multitask while playing poker.
It is harder to do when playing Stud though.

The good thing about playing online poker is that you can always do something else. But you have to be very careful because it's easy to lose concentration and make the wrong decisions. In a tournament with a lot of money and a high buy-in, it's best not to risk doing something else.
