Less then way to much - more then way to less.

Fond equilibrium between pain/pleasure and profits/loss while keeping a want/need to play.

Back in 2006-2007 I used to play a lot, every night after work for extended periods. Went through a rough patch and stopped for years.

Started again this year around Christmas with 10$.

I play 0.50$ full ring STT SNGs on full tilt.

I'd say 2-3 SNGs a week, mainly on weekends.

I went from 10$ to 16.50$ so far since christmas. I'm surprised at how consistent my cash finishes have been in the last couple weeks so I keep the same rhythm, keep reading and analyzing my play and hope for the best.

I play around 8 hours a day,,,maybe 28 days a month. Even on off days I play a little. What can I say, I just love the game.

I'm 67 and have COPD, so I'm restricted on being able to get out and do much. Go play live tournaments maybe once every six weeks or so. It's about 150 mile drive round trip. I've never cashed yet. But will someday, if I live long enough.
Later y'all

Currently I play about 4-6 hours a day, mostly multi-table sngs and smaller field MTTs. I usually take a break on Saturdays to clear my head.

5 to 10 games on average is small. You have to earn points to get the bonus given by every poker sites and also status.

I play 4-6 hrs per day and you have to multi-table as well just to earn points very fast.

I play more than my fiance wants me too! Definitely play all day if I can get away with it, but sometimes I only get to play a few games. We have a 10 week old baby right meow, and neither of us are working....so I live in the dog house...but at least I'm all in. lol

On average, maybe 2 hours a day. That includes our League game once a week which can last over 3 hours and the Saturday Freeroll which runs over 3 hours. I don't play at all maybe 2 days a week.

I like the Cardschat Freerolls and Cardschat $5 Real Money tournaments mostly...a few SnGs (DoN and TUs mostly).

When I was playing poker because of time for reasons of economic necessity withdraw my funds in general played a day of hands 1000-3000 cash and sng 20-50 per day.
I think it is important to analyze hands and errors trying to play a fairly large volume so that way have a more accurate knowledge of Stats & tools to help us improve.
The amount of hours you play depends on the time of each and if you play poker professionally, for fun, etc

4+ hours every day.

Nothing to show for it yet. But with the help of this cash in a tourny ($400) I can hopefully build it up.
