I actually shiver a lot when I play, mostly when I haven't gotten warmed up. Sometimes, though, even after an hour or two of play I am still shivering.

Must be some kind of nervous reaction.

Happens to me when i play poker for high stakes(1-2 no limit is high stakes for somone that makes 13$ an hour). Goes away after i win one hand though, so as long as i win the first hand i play i can play normally again.

Does yours go away after you win?

I do when its cold in the morning.. I had a craft cup game where my hands were like ice. Worst thing in the world.


Nature's pocket usually fixes this problem really quick.

Come to think of it ..kinda ..I'm just probably nervous and the blood from my hands rushes to my brain or something like that .

All the time, figured it's because of smoking.

Turn your heating up! Keep your hands active. Shivers? Kinda weird. Not sexual shivers, 'cause I get those playing SC2 :p

Used to while I played in the basement. Maybe you are also very nervous while playing?

My hands are cold occasionally. I have always wondered why - Bad circulation?

Try and wear a jacket or shirt with thick sleeves while you play, I find that it helps keep the blood flowing in my fingers. Cold hands are the worst when playing SC, all my reactions feel so slow and it's frustrating.

Sitting for prolonged periods of time can amongst other things reduce your circulation by 40% as well as help to form life threatening clotts. to prevent this you should break your sitting with a stretch or walk for a few minutes every hour. You should also rest your eyes similarly by altering the focal length regularly. This will also help level out adrenaline rushes which I believe is the other explanation as previously mentioned for what you're experiencing.
