right now I am playing all the freerolls I can find. The day usually starts around 11am and goes until 10 at night. But thats not straight poker usually the afternoon is busy with tournaments then I have a couple hours off and play one or two in late afternoon early evening. When I have a bankroll I play straight 12 hours easy.

Hey now I am playing 4 to 5 hours a day because we are in quarantine and I have time, but I usually play a couple of hours. My longest session was 13 hours straight, I kept my head at a thousand revolutions hahaha:p

More than 6 hours is difficult for me. Critical errors start due to fatigue. Optimal 4-5 hours

During the week I might do 3-4 hours (spread our during the week) and on weekends I usually do 2-3h a day. But as we talked in a different thread taking a break sometimes is more beneficial than playing constantly.

Wow, this question made me really look back. Less than a year ago, I was playing close to everyday for 4 or 5 hours a day. Get off of work, and fire up the PC to play poker and watch Twitch. Now with COVID, I'm lucky if I play 10 hours a month. It's strange how things change.

I agree with you about concentration. I play every day for 2-3 hours, if the game goes, it happens and much more. Let's say I register for several tournaments every day, play on two tables, lose concentration and lose. A friend of mine plays rarely, but accurately. Yesterday, after a week's break, he took 1st place in a good tournament. There are times when you feel that it's time for you to rest, and you should listen to your feelings.

I play usually 2 or 3 50cent SnG games plus any free-rolls that are on offer.
The SnG games can last for just over an hour each and depending on how I feel in the free-rolls I sometimes shove on mediocre hands just to see if I hit lucky.
Last night's game paid out the top 72 places and I made it to 15th in chips but had a party to go to so just sat out for the last hour and made the money.
If I had the time I would probably have tried for the final table but sometime's it is not possible, Real family time is more important.

I usually play from 3 hours to 8 hours, as the average tournament lasts 10 minutes with an increase in bids.

I hardly play now a days, I grinded so much whilst learning but now I feel I have it cracked its just pure tedius. not only that but I guess mental health has effected the hours I play its hard to motivate myself to grind. like literally in the last month I would say I have played a couple a hours..

Hours of daily poker

I usually play at night and not more than one game. I may spend up to three hours a night, but not every night.
