I close the TV
I close the radio ( I only listen to apocalyptica some times but that's rare)
Sometimes i eat snacks

But I always love to drink Scotch while playing poker!
 
during the game, I love to listen to relaxing music! it gives me a motivation! other than that i do not like to be distracted during the game
 
During the game I like to listen to music or watch streaming on twitch
 
Generally check FB and browse the web if something sparks my interest. Been trying to stay focused on the games but its only doable if I am playing multitable as betonline has lots of disconnects and some folks take forever every hand or so it seems.

If its a big tourney I usually focus after the final break for addons/rebuys
 
I do a lot of things that I need to stop to do )))) such as: eating, watching movies, reading, googling, sometimes even playing other games ))))
 
watch tv can't sit an concentrate for hours on end only play socially will never make the grade long term

For me I can't focus on playing poker without noise around me. I have to be watching something on TV or a series on Netflix while I am playing. If i'm not watching TV then I have to be listening to music. I am pretty sure the majority of people are completely opposite from me, but what do you guys do?

Play poker and listening to music, watching videos on YouTube, sometimes I watch poker TV. Well, I take notes and write on their opponents, note the chalk (fish, reg)😎
 
Of course at a game in online poker, it is necessary to be distracted by another matters as little as possible. But all have such opportunity not always and not. Personally I playing online I dare to be distracted by surfing on network, sometimes I watch film or news therefore results generally unfavourable. But if to set as the purpose it is good to play, then it is necessary to concentrate the attention only at the game. It is allowed to play at several tables strongly not to miss. At the same time the quantity of tables shouldn't disturb a game.
 
I try to stay 100% focused because I am easily dispersed by other things and observing the opponents in poker is fundamental

Game, game and only the game, everything else just distracts me
 
I am exactly the same as you. I can only play when there is noise around me, whether it's TV or music it doesn't make much difference to me.
