It's hard not to sometimes, but I do lose a little focus when I start to fidget too much. I'm always better when I just stay still.

No I don't do any fidgeting while playing omline. I find that a nice cold beer helps to stay in front of the screen.

I have a stack of 10 chips that I shuffle and such on a couple of old mouse pads. Music is cool, too.

During the game, usually include TV or music for the background. Sometimes I play in complete silence. Always in the mood.

Very funny answers! I’d like to see firsthand what people do during the game! If I play on the computer, I simultaneously browse online stores. I can watch them for hours, make purchases. Conveniently in many hours of tournaments. If I play on the phone, I do everything Anything! Cooking dinner, talking with relatives, drinking tea, looking through magazines. Especially good magazines, distracting and enter the game only with good cards. Don't be nervous waiting.

Easy to get restless when sitting for many hours in front of the computer. I try as much as possible to focus on the table and player actions and not be distracted by other things, but no one can avoid it forever. I do fidget but mostly just moving my mouse around , rearranging windows, etc.

I used to... a lot...

I don't know what it was, anxiety probably, Told the general practitioner (My Doctor) about it and was Prescribed anti-anxiety medication, now every thing is sweet...

Is like being stoned but without the Stoned and real Mental Clarity lol Honestly they're awesome...

Just Relaxed normal every day behavior, no disorientation either which I thought would be a side effect...

Propranolol Up to 40mg daily...

I normally always have a deck of cards in my hand or my rubiks cube whilst playing online. IT just gives my hands something to do.
I play with my ponytail way too often. I'm also using a e-cig and drinking a lot of water. Very tough to sit down for many hours.

Hi!:hello:
I think this is a great solution to keep your hands busy (unless you are playing offline and it doesn't bother anyone).There is also a category of hyperactive people:icon_boun(their brain activity improves at the same time.):fight:

During the game, I watch sports channels, mainly football. But the closer the prizes are, the more nervous I start to get!
