With the current situation in Lebanon; I am finding it extremely hard to log on and play due to the electricity cuts and deteriorating economic situation. My weekly hours went from 40 to 7.
It's tough adapting to circumstances that stop you from playing an "A" game. Within the thread I've noticed people stating how long they play on average but not the quality of the time they're "spending." A bigger game, a better-played game within a 7 hour timeline could be the same as 300 hours played at lesser stakes with mistakes. I count my "poker time" as "anything to do with poker" which includes posting within this forum, studying poker players/games, analyzing prior games with various trackers both standalone and online as well as reading anything to do with poker. Certain games require preparation, not quite to the extent as a parachute jump where you have only one reserve, but every minute engaged in a poker mindset should ultimately result in a big pay-off. At the end of the day, could you earn more from a regular job and do something different with your funds or are you part of the "poker economy?":cool:

I only play on weekends, so I think it's about 10h/week.
I even try to play some tournaments here and there on weekdays, but it's hard to contact my work. I wish I could volume up more.

Hi Ziadfox, I'm glad to say as a Lebanese myself too, I'm experiencing the same thing nowadays more than the time you started this thread... (sar ytfi l eshtirak 3al 12 tb3 l motor lol), but 3g 4g mobile data still gets me few hours past midnight. I usually play from 8pm till 3-5am (8 hours/day - 56hours/week)

I always wanted to get in touch with Lebanese players, so I hope to meet you someday on the felt and get to know each other. Goodluck on you grind!

Between six and eight hours a day, if the day is good, it can go up to 16 hours, but the normal is 6-8 hours a day

Hi.
On average, I play 20-25 hours a week. I play 4-5 days a week for 4-5 hours a day. I would like to play more time, but unfortunately there is no such opportunity at the moment.

I have little too, I believe about 12h/week. I know it's low volume, but it's what I'm currently playing. Weekdays playing for me is being very difficult with two small children at home lol

the amount of hours I dedicate to poker is 35 hours a week, you should always calculate the hours we spend playing to always take a mental break.

I have played a bit of cash last week, but I only played 2 hours over 2 nights. I'm often too tired to play poker, very busy at work and the heat is knocking me out 😭😭😭😭

I usually play for about an hour every day in the evenings. But if there is a huge event that I want to qualify for then I play more.
