Question: What do you think of ipods at the poker table?
Love them
Quite like them
Find them mildly irritating
Don't care
Don't like them
Absolutely hate the things, they should be banned from poker

I love I pods. As one who like a fair amount of noise at the table I have much pleasure with people sitting next me wearing an i pod. It goes like this

Person on left settles down at table.....
Says hello and puts on ipod.......Metaphorically saying to me I am not going to talk to you.
Me waiting until I am sure it is on..."What you listening to then?"
Much performance as matey switches off said device and says "Leo Sayer"
Oh says me.
Let him go through the process of putting his earpiece back in. Back on goes Leo Sayer....... Me having waited 30 secs "You like Leo Sayer then do you?"
Slowly removing earpiece matey says pardon...so I repeat. I am starting to get through.

This process is repeated as required

My record of waiting for an earpiece to go back in and then making matey remove is 8 in forty five minutes but more than this it has added a whole new dimension to live poker

Brilliant, I will try that next time.

Absolute classic i can imagine that by the 8th removal of earphones he'd be slightly edgy and had called you various things in his thoughts

I don't mind I-pods...I only wear mine when I am playing online at home though...just to prevent me from being bored. In a live game I wouldn't even consider it.
