What was the longest time you didn‘t play a hand on a table at a no limit cashgame ?

I don't really remember, but probably not more than a couple of minutes. At least I try to steal blinds when I'm in position. In tournaments I've already stay 30 minutes without playing any hand.

I'm not really a great lantern player, I'm more of a semi-bluff.
I wait for my best hand with a lot of patience.
The times I win the most, I'm not very interested in having a lot of hands without playing. In that course I see a lot of how my opponents play, and then let's see where I can act with a bluff if the cards don't answer me.
Sometimes I have spent tournaments playing with a lot of junk hands that I have taken advantage of. And sometimes I've spent maybe an entire hour until a break without playing a hand.
For me, what you're asking is very relative.
Nor do I want others to play like me, that everyone plays the game that pays them the most.

Hours.

I have even made deals with myself to play at tables with good players and be patient patient patient.

I interrogate myself - why am I at that table? To play a lot, to win a lot or to lose as little as possible?

It is up to you.

Good luck !

I play fast fold as I cannot stand waiting for a decent hand to play. Poker is pretty boring at times :(

Well, I'm not one to wait for premium hands to play. It is common for everyone to run or take a Bad Beat. I prefer to play in position and try medium hands as well.

I had once interrupted a whole year, later I still returned to poker.

Lately, I prefer tournaments. But probably my longest cash game lasted about 5-6 hours. My longest tournament lasted about 7-8 hours.
