Don't play distracted, play focused!

Food for thought.

Common sense poker: eliminate distractions
Nothing beats common sense at the poker table. If you have KK, the board reads 4578, and your opponent check-raises you, common sense tells you the villain has a 6 for the straight, and you'd better have a very good reason to think he's bluffing if you're going to continue in the hand. Of course, if both you and the villain have a lot of money on the table, it doesn't matter if he has it or not, you're never going to be sure enough he's bluffing to justify a call in that spot. There are all kinds of common sense decisions when it comes to playing hands, but some of the most profitable common sense applies to how you approach a session before you even sit down at the tables...
