i usually listen to music and if the red sox are on i watch the game while im playing poker, i get pretty distracted when i do that though but with my ipod the music gives me a nice calm feeling and sometimes it gives me a rush lol

Was listening to Metallica - Master of Puppets earlier during Midnight Madness, but that didn't work out so well. So now, it's Radiohead - In Rainbows during my nightly 4x table cash games. It has been working out well.

I listen to rap, hip/hop and R&B. I am pretty mainstream in USA. I do like a lot of underground rap as well.

I also listen to my son playing all the time and asking me questions, shows that i put on television, my girl talking to me, my phone ringing when I get calls or text messages, etc... lol... I pretty much multitask all the time when I play poker...

Currently listening to A Perfect Circle...I didn't have Lennon's version of Imagine, so I settled for the better version.

As far as what i listen to when i play poker, its definately classical music. Usually some string quartet or something, none of them fat man bellowing in front of an orchestra crap. LOL. But seriously, I find that listening to classical music when i play makes me more patient, and thoughful of my actions. Breaks seem to come much faster, and being card dead, is just a bump in the road. When you listen to pieces of music that are 20-30 60 minutes long its a lot easier to maintain focus. If its not classical then its one fo the following; Rage against the machin, RHCP, Beatles, Zepplin, or some brother ali or immortal technique (talk about underground). But if youre playing a long tournement, stick with long classical pieces of music, i promise you your play will improve.

I might have to try that,I usually listen ratt, motley crue, ac/dc ect ect 80s hair bands, so maybe some light fluffy music might help.

immortal technique

Immortal Technique played in the student union @ UMD a few years ago. I got there too late to get a ticket though. He's definitely talented.
