I play poker 3-4 days a week.
I would like to play more, but unfortunately, I'm actually all the time at work.

If I didn't have to work I would play 5 or 6 hours a day, but then I would have no money to play unless I kept winning! I still manage 2 or 3 hours most days.

Lately I'm only playing on my breaks, but I study every day on my cell phone at work intervals, but my mission is to focus more on game days and try to increase the time to play too

I play online most days just because its convenient. If I have time I make my way down to the casino, but that's not as often as I'd like. Damn real job gets in the way...

well I spend my day playing. I wake up feeding myself after I do physical exercises. Soon after this I start a session playing some tournaments that can last between 6 to 8 hours. I take breaks every hour usually of 15 minutes where I include baths and food. In general I go to sleep at 10 at night and I wake at 9 the other day. my poker sessions usually close before ten. Some times between one tournament and another I go to the supermarket.

It depends on what poker is for you. If hobby, then play 2-3 hours in day. And if the work, then be prepared to play all day.

I try to practice at least 1000 hands a day on a simulator. Other then that, I play in the odd freeroll and cash game.

I do not work and do household chores, I spend my free time in poker. Unfortunately, there is not much time left, I would like to devote more time to poker.

Hi

I play poker pretty much everyday. I play 6 to 10 hours a day most the time. On occasion I do take a day or two off to re-group.

To achieve a positive result in any business - you need a lot of strength and poker is no exception, only complete dedication - the desire - the desire for the goal can give a positive result!

I play poker for 4 hours a day, for 2 years already

The question, for myself, would be, "How many games do you really play?" - I don't always really know - because I don't always play poker when I am in a game. I will explain.

I am a "live" player. Online, I study for live games. There are differences between "online" and "live" games. I do things online that might cost me a few chips or the game, but in live play - if I did the same - I might be out the big blind or a few hundred dollars.

Studying online, I try to get ahead of the table. If I can, I do things I would not when playing live. For example - right from the start of a hand, I might shoot for a flush on 10-2 suited. In live, unless you're Doyle Brunson, that is suicide, especially if only one same suit drops on the flop. When I do this, I am pre-committed to seeing the river since I want to measure outcomes and track success/failure rates. Online is the only place I can do this and keep my shirt. Being pre-committed to the river, and not getting the cards I want - you'd be shocked by how many players fold to a big raise. At the same time, however, my bluffs gets called enough. So, trust me, don't do it live.

That's what I mean when I say I don't always play poker in online games. It's a testing ground, and the tests are more important than the games. Playing live, I remember what I did online in similar situations. Not often, because of "real" bankroll concerns, do I try the same strategy. The results can be surprising, either way.
