Habits.

[holdemstewart]

Well, Im new to the site, but Ive been reading your guys post for a little longer than a month though, laughing my ass off half the time. Figured Id make me presence known by trying to get to know you guys. Tell me if this thread has been made before though so I dont look like a COMPLETE idiot.lol. Well, I was wonderin if any of you guys have something that you like to do when your playing poker, online or off. I like to have a hat on a smoke a cigar (makes me feel more comfortable). Anyways, figure Id post somethin.

I usually smoke something to dumb me down to the level of my competition. It makes for more of a challenge.

[Talking Poker]

I don't do anything like that, but I do multi-task. Watch a movie, email, surf, work, this forum, whatever...

Welcome to the forum.

[JDMcNugent7]

when playing poker i like to play ALOT more poker at the same time.

[MAYHEM45]

Ditto.

I also have my Ipod/Itunes cranked, msn and aim open, a couple firefox windows, and sometimes my guitar rockin all at the same time.

[JDMcNugent7]

Ditto - i even play the guitar too - i dont think ive ever said that on here.

Depending on what's going on, I'll usually fire up iTunes.

I keep meaning to create a playlist specifically for tourneys. I think it will start off fairly mellow (think Enya, Tori, etc.) then move up a step to a bit more lively (swing, classic rock, etc.) before moving into the endgame mode (NWA, Ice-T, 2Pac, AC/DC, Dead Kennedys, Clash, you get the idea - stuff to get that blood pumpin')

Well now you did I"m royally pissed off now you know what I do when I play poker ???/

1.) Read all the pokerbooks advice on drinking and playing so I don't drink no more

2.) Cause of the liberal crybabies I can't freaking smoke anywhere anymore

3.) Can't Look at porn no more cause of the new firewalls

4.) Can't watch T.V. no more playing online cause it sucks ass Reality crap

5.) Can't talk to anyone in a live room anymore cause you might offend them and get sued so I don't talk no more.

6.) I used to scratch the area around my balls but it got raw so I can't do that anymore.

7.) So basically I just post here because life sucks in America these days.
But if your gonna sit around and play poker in all my free time it's still the place to be

honestly I like a cigarette, and after I get a bead on the table in a live room I like to take out a book and pretend I"m reading it while watching the players.
I don't wear sunglasses cause it looks stupid and have you been in a live room lately the light is so dim if your wearing glasses you can't see the dam cards

[holdemGuy]

hehe... i like this thread. I usually end up smoking one thing or another. When i play with friends this one guy always insists on seeing mucked hands. Which results in an argument. Thats a habit of sorts

[wildcard1433]

I find that multi-tasking is a fun thing to do while playing online. I find it keeps me from playing hands that I know I shouldn't when I have a cold streak.

[eejit101]

normally involved listening to music, smoking, drinking pepsi (alcohol makes me bluff more), and watching WPT, WSOP, or football on TV.

Its a good life if you can have it. Sitting at home all day, playing poker for a living...

[Borgouise]

Well, I personally refuse to play without music, Its pretty much a religion. And if I'm playing online, ^ eejit is bothering me, thinking he knows what he is doing. But it keeps my mind clear, and keeps my off of tilt. i suggest talking to another player while playing, as long as they arent at the same table.
