How many hours a day do you play poker online?

I'm on break from school and for the past couple weeks I've been playing around 8-10 hours a day (with breaks in between) 6 days a week.

Some people might see this as excessive.

What are your thoughts?

Play until you pass out, and sometimes even longer, there is never too much.

Once I was into a 8 hour session and fell asleep while still registered for a Double Up SNG that hadn't started yet, I woke to see that I cashed. LOL

As much as you like, as long as you are not neglecting other things or people. :)

depend the day if is in weekend or working day, depend the tournament, if you paid the buy in a tournament, you did paid it to play it, even if it takes 6-7h which is not that much for 12-15 min lvl up tournament

poker can be seen like a job or a game, whatever is, do not forget about more important things from your life, so do not play it abusive

Previous I played online poker for about 6-8 hours a day with little breaks after long tournements. But nowadays I don`t win often and don`t play so long after a miserable season. I think it`s depending on your interest to free time and will to win.

I play on average six hours a day, do not play more than that because of the college. When I'm in college vacation I play poker on average 10-12 hours a day.

I used to play poker all day.
I remember I had a tournament in which I was the chip leader at the halfway point .. Suddenly I woke up and it turned out that I took more place ..
The world simply missed the opportunity of a lifetime ... :D

When I started playing poker online, I went crazy about it, and I was playing more than 12 hours a day. And I didn't seem to care about anything but poker. It's been a long and tough road for me, and I'm glad those days are over. Now days if I'm going to play, I start at 12pm with 3 MTTs or a mix of cash and MTTs. That gets me off here by 5 pm, and I can do other things.

I play at least 1 MTT per day. But when I'm well motivated to play I play on average 9-10 hours too . I do not think you are is overwhelming because of the six days of rest after grind

I always play 3-4 hours a day, but not every day. Because I have a family favorite, which I love to spend time.:)

More than 4 hours of playing online poker can be too much for me.

I don't think there is ever too much online poker. I used to play sunrise to sunrise the next day and then some.

8-10 hours a day is enough... stop playing when you feel tilt and heavy head.
