I changed my mind. Before, I used to say that music distracted me, not now, I got used to playing poker listening to music and I feel more relaxed.

I constantly listen to music while playing, and which one depends on my mood, it helps whenever the cards don't go and I just have to sit for a long time

doesn't everyone? I play relaxing and "easy listening" at the beginning of the tourney (late reg), then a little bit more energetic between the end of late reg and ITM, almost house or EDM until the last two tables, and my "favorite list" till I win the tourney, or get busted.

I don't listen to music when I play it's distraction to me I like to concentrate on what I'm doing unless I'm playing in a tournamentthen it takes so long I watch TV or play a little bit music while I'm playing

Before I didn't like it because I thought it was a division. Now I like to listen to music while I play, it helps me stay focused on the game and not be distracted by other things

80s/90s music or some twitch playing on the background. Chilling and playing at the same time :)

I turn on music as a background while playing. But I don't turn on the music that I love very much, otherwise I'll start singing along and get distracted and this cannot be allowed

when it's a crucial moment, like the final table, I like total silence. and at the end you can afford a victory dance with humor to any music

Pleasant music helps us to keep our focus, and the one we don't like works destructively. Usually when I play poker I listen to music that relaxes me.

I find I play better with the distraction of music -- it is definitely a calming influence. Also I especially like it at a live table when sitting next to a 'chatter' . . .

I used to listen until I started playing 4 tables at the same time, anyway, well remembered, setting up the playlist at 3.2.1 :smile:

Poker without background music is a bit like driving a tricycle or Bieber without autotune: it will still work, but what's the point.
The music I listen to while playing is mixed, but at the moment I like to listen to Deep Dish and Mylo with their respective Essential Mix from BBC radio 1.
Suuuper nice.
In addition, my playlist runs mostly on Faithless, Queen and Robbie. And when you finish after a good session, you can sing appropriately on Robbie's "Monsoon": "I'm here to get money and get laid "
