For me i have to say i love to listen to music i like all kinds i have a headset i like to put on and find a album like say ozzy ac/dc ect and play it while playing poker.
 
In General while playing poker, it is better not to be distracted and focus on the fact that you could win
 
I usually listen to music while i play poker.It feels dull not to do anything so yeah music will kill that dullness and the boredom.
 
Listen to Blues (Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker and K W Shepherd etc...) and plenty of Irish coffee.
 
sometimes i search information about different thing at the internet
as i dont play poker very seriously yet
 
The same, i watch tv series (oldies series, like Simpsons, or The Nanny , Friends or classical concerts lol XD) or music, something to eat and orange juice
 
I like to watch music videos or live sports; football(with a round ball) or horse racing.
If I'm playing only one tournament I've also go my guitar at hand to fill in the gaps (I often dream of when pokerstars, or a third party, rollout a Voice Activated Decision input system ... it's a little frustrating to stop playing every 4mins just to fold)
Zoom is brilliant for a big race day. You can 'Sit-Out Next BB' very quickly, watch a race\place a bet, then return to the table and nobody knows you've been away .. no extra blinds to pay.
 
agree with deestee i use to watch tv or listen music or read something etc.. but know i stoped all that cuz when i play poker i should think about poker right? i noticed that really stop doing silly mistakes now😉 😉 😉
 
Pay attention. When you are playing online maybe some music because when you go play live poker you can listen the music but you cant take Tv to casino and watch something.
 
I like to have soft music in the background. It seems to make me concentrate better.
 
whad you do when your playing poker?

gotta have the radio on!!!!!😀
 
Depends on my mood or what needs to get done

Do chores between hands, dishes, laundry

Sewing

Listening to music

Solitaire
 
Been playing Fallout 3 again while playing online. Passes the time really fast.
 
well, if i am playing some tournament i like to observe the others tables to collect some player notes. If we have the ambition to win i think we shoud not keep our minds busy with other stuff. But music is always welcome when i am playing
 
I am usually multitabling, so most of my attention is focussed on playing multiple hands. While playing, I usually try to identify one juicy table, and start to pay attention to who I can exploit at that table.
 
I play on balalayka and drink vodka (with bears in ushanka's).

Use too much energy on irrelevant things like Skype.

I try to keep my concentration and feelings up by good music, but usually without lyrics. Bach and classical was a great idea, I have to try that.
