A23 Poker Professor: How to Prepare Your Workstation Before a Poker Session?

Welcome back to another class of Semester 2. In my last class, we explored the exciting world of poker content creation and discussed strategies for ‘How To Get Featured in the Next Poker Content Show?‘ Today, we focus on a fundamental aspect of your poker journey: how to prepare your workstation before a poker session.

What is a poker player’s workstation?

Imagine your workstation as your very own poker fortress. It’s more than just a place to sit and play—it’s a meticulously designed environment that fosters peak performance. Here’s what a poker workstation encompasses:

• Your playing surface: This could be a dedicated poker table, a designated desk area, or even a specific corner of your living room transformed into your poker haven.
• Your tech arsenal: Essential gadgets include your computer or laptop for online play, a mobile device for tracking stats and accessing hand histories, and a reliable charger for uninterrupted gameplay.
• Your comfort zone: This includes an ergonomic chair that provides proper back support and prevents fatigue during long sessions. A good-quality mouse and keyboard are crucial for precise movements and effortless gameplay.

How should a poker player prepare their workstation?

Preparing your workstation is about creating an environment that maximises focus, minimises distractions, and optimises comfort. Here’s how to get started:

• Ergonomics first: Invest in a chair that provides proper lumbar support and adjust your computer screen to eye level to prevent neck and shoulder strain. Consider a standing desk converter to alternate between sitting and standing, improving circulation and reducing fatigue.
• Lighting is key: Optimise your lighting to reduce eye strain. Avoid harsh glare from windows or overhead lights. Use a desk lamp with adjustable brightness and a colour temperature that’s easy on the eyes.
• Organised chaos: Keep your playing surface clutter-free. Ensure essentials like snacks, drinks, and tools are within easy reach. Use organisers or trays to arrange playing cards, chips, and other accessories neatly.
• Distraction-free zone: This is crucial. Put your phone on silent or, even better, in another room. Close unnecessary browser tabs and applications. Inform household members of your session and request minimal interruptions.

A23 Poker Professor Tips

Here are some additional tips to help you plan and organise your poker workstation:

• Personalise your space: Decorate your workstation with items that inspire and motivate you, such as quotes, pictures of your poker heroes, or even a small plant for a touch of nature.
• Test your setup: Before a serious grind, test your workstation to ensure everything is comfortable and functioning correctly. Address any issues beforehand.
• Regular maintenance: Keep your equipment clean and well-maintained. This includes cleaning your screen, ensuring your keyboard is responsive, and keeping your chair in good condition. Regularly inspect equipment for wear and tear and address issues promptly.

A well-prepared workstation is an invaluable asset on your poker journey. By creating a comfortable, distraction-free, and personalised playing environment, you can enhance focus, sharpen decision-making, and increase your chances of success at the tables.
