How many Hours a week do you guys play poker? Be honest now and lets have some fun and see who wins.

I play 21 hours a week on the internet and about 4 hours live(b&M) poker per week.

Thats 25 hrs. per week. I'm sure everybody will beat that! :aetsch:

I think 20 hours a week is a lot, but that's about how much I play

4 or 5 hours a day online, six days a week. Local game on Thursday nights that goes about the same. So, I guess I average about 30-35 hours. Just think what I could do if I REALLY applied myself!

Well its come very close a number of times to getting to that point.

I am saving up a fair bit now and getting a bit hnnnnnnng with my job at the moment, so going to see if I can keep my play consistant for a number of months at a time and I might well make that step some point ;]

I'm likely looking at 15hrs a week or so.

However, number of hours spent thinking about poker a week = ALL OF THEM!

Latly with school my time online has dropped, now it's about 10-15 hours a week, in the summer, I could hit 30, mabey even 40 If I'm playing well.

I'm with Grumble -- this whole "work thing" is really getting in the way of my poker playing.

I usually play with a full table game with my buddies 2 or 3 times/week, as well as a couple of online sit & go's per week. I'd estimate between 15-20 hours of poker/week...it would be more if I didn't have school & work.

I typically play 15 hours a week online, and at least 10 hours live. I really like playing live, it's much more personable, and I can take cash from my buddies :-D.

Grumble but its good to have a second income for ur poker habit.Never quit ur job unless ur sure of yourself that u can play poker for a living and it pays urs bills and keeps a roof over ur head.And especially the phone bill or cable bill so u can still play online.

Not enough

I play about 8hrs a week online and every 2nd weekend in homes games. I played in the casino for the 1st time last weekend and lost $5.00 after about 4hrs of play, some old guy hit runner/runner on me 3 times including back to back, that is when I left on full tilt. The wife says that I play too much but we are tracking my win/loss so I can prove to her that I am ahead of the game. I'd love to play more but that damn work keeps getting in the way.
