Re: Answering your own question
Actually, with headphones/iPod and Sunglasses, I feel a protection or isolation from being easily read by the table. Most of the time my iPod was turned off.
In terms of asking the dealer about the amount of bet,etc..., in most cases, it is just to confirm the amount to avoid any dispute in the action. Even without headphones/ipod, players are more likely to ask before acting to a bet/raise.
If you sit near Mike or Barry Greenstein, headphones definately help to focus on the game.
