Daniel Negreanu (AKA Mr. MoreRakeIsBetter) says it is a good practice to have a set time frame to play poker and to leave when you said you would, regardless if you are in a hole or if you are up. This allows us to discipline ourselves at the table to play our very best, rather than trying to make a quick dollar.
Often times on Instagram or Reddit, I see people post pictures of the stack they cash out at and they say how long their session is. For example, "in for $100, out for $1000 in 2.5 hours". Frequently, I find that a lot of people play very short sessions and cash out while they're up. Other times I see really long sessions in attempt to hopefully come out positive. My buddy says he does that to help him build a bankroll, so that he isn't buying back in for how much he won at his next session.

I am not asking, when is it time to cash out. Rather, I am asking if you would rather stay for an entire 8 hour session and leave at the 8 hour mark regardless of your chip stack size... or would you rather make a quick dollar and leave right away to protect your profit?
