I used to play everyday. But as I get older I find myself getting into periods where I will play everyday for 3 weeks, then maybe twice a week for a month. Ideally I would like to play a few hours a day 4 to 5 times a week. But that just hasn't been the case lately. I'd like to blame it on the computer issues I have been having lately, but honestly I think I just lost focus on poker for days on end somtimes.

Only about 2 hours for me. Usually 1-2 SNG and I call it a day.

In tournaments on pokerstars and full tilt poker, I'm an average of 3-4 hours a day in the spin-and-gos and cash games I play a little less than 1-2 hours somewhere.

I average 25K hands a week of 25 and 50nl. I mtt 8 tables over 2 sites. If at any time i drop 5% of my br I take a 24 hour break, go over hands played during this loss and regroup. This has helped me maintain a strong br and pays 60% of my bills. I also play 20 hours a week live 1/3 and 2/5

I tend to play 4-8 hours a day in 2 hour sessions , this is for cash games . I think it gives me a nice pace of play and allows short breaks for getting away from the pc for a bit throughout the day as well . When I used to play Mtts I used to just sit in front of the pc for like 10 straight hours everyday , that was exhausting so I came up with a plan since I started playing cash games .

A couple of hours a day or long depending on the tourney structure.

My Hubby did play from when his eyes opened till bed. He did that for about 6 months. That was 2 years ago & he is still recovering. :p

Eso podría ser mi problema o mi mayor debilidad. Me encanta tanto el poker que en consecutivas ocasiones juego más de 14 horas diarias. Eso es malo ? O bueno ?

That all depends. If I have a good BR and am in a poker zone I can run 12 to 14 sessions. If I'm not feeling poker then i try to play as little as possible.

It depends on how deep do I get. I don't l play anyomore if I bust out, cause I know that then it's a bad day for poker and I will just lose more.

I usually play two sessions, about 2 hours each time. The sessions are centered around the freerolls that I play, supplemented with small stakes cash games played concurrently.

Depending on the form of poker in the cache would not have amounted to a list of events for each day mainly 5-6 hours.

The best thing is to play how much you can...

For a human body who doesn't know the poker world, works for 8-10hours per day....so you can also make that in poker too....but i guess sometimes you can try more, other times ...you will try little bit.

My sessions are like this....i register in "n" mtts and sngs and IF THERE IS something interesting still in this session i will try to register also in more....but i don't really like to make 2 sessions one after the other....becoming boring and also your senses becomes really atenuated....

IF you want to be profitable, you must imput the "positive line" into your poker session..What means that? Is just all you do with the time to be prepaired 100% for poker and have the attitude necesarry being to win the best

No more than 2 hours per day unless it's a tournament. I found playing too long, it can become boring and making plays that you would not under normal circumstances.
