Are you listening to music while playing poker?

[NinjaHands]

I listen to the music of Ozzy man and Mozza talking shit. It's great.

 

[williamsc99]

I sure listen to a lot of music and alternate between you tube videos and cable tv channels. I like to watch football or talk shows while I play. Of course at a final table, the maximum I put is a very quiet song.

 

[Mikica1122]

I usually listen to music when I play and it's rap music.

 

[tw082]

ya sometimes i play my guitar to keep me calm.

 

[ekgbeat]

I mix it up. If the table is talkative about the game and it's a cash game, then I'll have one ear bud. Tournaments, I'll have both in. Music is a nice balance of having something in the background, but able to focus on the game.

 

[Guaraparty]

I prefer the sound of poker the music if I like it with its rhythm it loses concentration ... the sound of poker gets me the game and so I can study the method of play of each contricante

 

[davem86]

It all depends in what type of mood im in.
Sometimes I will listen to certain playlist or just plain instrumental type music

 

[Sammy92]

Yes. I pause it when I need to think at very specific spots, but in general I find it helps me concentrate and prevents me HUGELY from tilting.

 

[All Rise]

Yes, I am now able to listen to tunes while playing. Depends on the mood though, not always a productive thing to do.

 

[MemphisGrind]

Are you listening to music or do you prefer to hear just the poker sounds while you are playing online? :thrasher:

I usually have twitch playing so whatever music the streamer is listening too then I am listening to as well. I have my display on a T.V. screen next to my T.V. screen so I can watch both at once.

 

[DenizR95]

I'm watching magic612 videos on youtube. I play on his strategy and win easy peasy money.

 

[uriell]

Rarely. For me, the main focus of the game. To my attention, nothing is distracting.

 

[Pokerblitz]

Music somehow works tilting for me, even when it's calm classical music. Best to keep listening to music and playing poker separate, I suppose

 

[HeyMan]

I love to listen to music while playing live tourneys but not online

 

[voli106]

I don't listen to music while playing it distracts I love total silence

 

[ilucha228]

relaxing background music is allowed for me

 

[diadiavalik]

I more often, during the game, watch stream of poker players!

 

[CounterfeitedNutz]

Since I mostly play mtts online, I typically listen to music or have a ballgame on tv. It seems to work well with keeping me from getting bored when card dead and prevents me from donking off chips. That said however, I can turn my attention towards the game when needed without being distracted.

 

[Donny bennight]

old country music is the best...70's 80's

 

[Donny bennight]

old county music is the best 70"s and 80"s

 

[HugoGoltz5521]

I listen sometimes it depends on the time and the moment I'm in the game

 

[dbchristy]

ALWAYS!! Imagine Dragons, and Panic at the Disco lately

 

[fhruhrhit]

Recently, I listen ''Parasyte'' music.(*animation BGM. "Parasyte -the maxim-" or "Kiseijuu: Sei no Kakuritsu")

This sound is so cool.

 

[Slip_Me_Aces]

I listen to music every now and then playing poker but I find myself turning it way down or completely off in big hands. I find that listening to soothing music that relaxes me is best for me when I play poker. If I am playing loud aggressive music it tends to make me play worse. Sounds weird but its true. I think a relaxed frame of mind while playing will help you make the best decisions. Just playing music because you are bored is not always a good idea!

 

[MarineCJ]

I listen to music at a low volume that puts me in a good mood. I find that it helps me play my A game.
