Hello, the All CardsChat Community! As for me, I'm often get some sleep before tournament(s),
after this I'm eat, that charge my brains a good food energy, and in end at once before tournament(s)
about 5 minutes relax... That's all! Something like that, with the different variants...🙄😎🙂
 
Speaking about me than i'm play PC games, watch poker game in youtube or read good book. Recent times study poker strategies in CC and learn English at the same time.
 
I look at the seconds until the tournament starts because I'm really looking forward to playing poker.
 
Before when I had nice stack I simply played cash game 0.01/0.02c but now when I'm short I watch something on the YouTube, lastly I watch CC guide "how to become a winning poker player in a 30 days" course and I really recommend it to everyone if you didn't watch it go start to watch, no matter who you are and what you know, this course must teach you something that you didn't know. :icon_bigs
 
Watching the review of same EPT tournys on Utube, it relaxes me and makes game mood.
 
I am disassembling distributions from the last session to make fewer mistakes.
 
Before tournaments and during tournaments, I watch on YouTube various poker tournaments, EPT, PSA.
 
Usually I like to brew a Coffee and get some nibbles ready for the game so if I start running bad I can sit back and Relax for a while.
 
Hey! I try not to play until the tournament time arrives, I try to distract myself with other things, for example the cell phone. But if I was already playing, I go into microlimits and play some hands
 
hello
before a tournement I try to sleep a bit ,then I drink coffe or coca cola and then I hope to get good cards

Preparing myself for a long day of poker:
- clean up the kitchen
- make food, for the microwave
- eat some

No, i never warm up.
The big tournaments (over $109), i like to play without more tables open.

When i have to wait, ill restart my computer, clean the ashtree, my desk and ready i am to play poker ! :icon_joke
 
Well, this is very relative. It depends on the time left for the tournament to start. Can watch a movie, youtube, play micro limits, enter a Sit Go ... it all depends on how much time I have ....
 
I tend to have a bite to eat, take care of any errands, and have a vape 🙂
 
Prep for start of tournament

I believe you wanna get focused on how your best path will be to money and from there make realistic play jumps in head
 
I either use the bathroom, get something to eat/drink, or get in a quick game of chess. It all depends, but a lot of the time it's all of them depending on how deep I run in the tournament.

netflix and chill 🙂
 
I usually watch streamers or read stuff about poker or just sit around and wait.
 
If is going to be a long tourney have everything near, water snakes and feed the dog or cat.
 
Sometimes while waiting for a tournament to start I will get anxious and whisper to myself 'come on already' and I also get a nervous tick.
 
I watch funny videos and listen music. I always prepare myself to be in a good mode. Chill a lot.
