running on treadmill +playing - Page 2

Well, it's possible to get some software to allow you to play poker by voice commands. Maybe playing 1-2 tables like this while running would work alright

you can use a gyro mouse, they actually work pretty well... although i'm not sure about running and using one... http://www.gyration.com/c-2-mice-keyboards.aspx

I DONT HAVE ATREADMIL TO PRACTICE!! NEITHER DO I HAVE LAPTOP!!!


but id do it fuck yeah

lol'd at the thread title

shoudn't be a problem though, i had no troubles playing 25/20/2 while juggling chainsaws

its a great idea to get exercise while using a computer, trouble is the motion generally disturbs mouse movement so need to do something that don't move too much of your body.
I tried using a small exercise bike but that didn't work very well, now i'm thinking more along the line of foot pedals:

X-post from 2+2 when I googled ''poker lol'' this morning while being extremely bored.

^ this guy has no breath even tho he's only walking&talking lol i can run and sing :D

I know and I also think it's so ridiculously bad to the point that it's actually hilarious.

lol

I'd rather just watch a movie when I'm running on a treadmill. I don't own one though.

i think it would...
A) make you a badass
B) make running go by much faster (i hate running)
C) only 2 table it...

That's pretty badass, but I think playing poker while chopping down trees or fighting robots and dinosaurs would be more epic.

What's badass about that. Fighting robots is easy, just throw EMP bomb. With the dinosaurs you just take a picture of em and they'll start eating eachother in confusion while ravaging through some forests.

wow wow, what is this, are those mice that you can just wave into the air and they recognize the movement (it doesn't have to be on anything solid)?

just asking to make sure cause this would pretty much save my life, thanks for the link in any case

It's obvious that the OP is this woman

Should women be allowed to play poker (while hitting the threadmill)?

very bad idea@

It sounds like your mind is already made up dude. Why bother making this thread? I think its a horrible idea, and that you need to focus 100% on the tables/players, instead of your incline/speed/heart rate. Save the cardio for after your session unless you are THAT pushed for time. Are you a full time student or something?

I'm all for staying in shape, work out daily and personal train. Its all about time management.

I can see this working if you were on a stationary bike or an eliptical machine. But a standard treadmill sounds tough with all the shaking that would be caused. Something where you are very steady and not moving much, and only like 4 tables seems like a good idea to me.
