what's so boring about winning a million in an evening? look @ isildur or zigmund- word boring is the last that comes to my mind here i think tag boring can only be applied to grinding, especially grinding that doesn't ship you a whole lot of cash. move up the stakes until u have 1BB bankroll- that will kill the boredom for good

Yeah I don't think online poker is boring. If you find yourself bored you're either not that huge a fan, maybe burnt out or the action is not getting your juices flowing, so that could be because your chances of winning big money isn't good or your stakes are too low - but don't get that mistaken with your skill level, don't try and play exciting $10/20 because you think it'll spice up your poker interest. You know what I'm saying?
Right now I dont play much, simply dont have time and other things are a priority, but when i get a spare mo, i'll sit down and crush.
I usually listening podcasts or "watching" stand up comedy while playing. Its not too distracting to mess with my flow or the way I calculate odds and keeps me entertained when I am about to get bored out of my mind.
Its not really multitasking but its working for me.
