Poker takes as much time as you attach to it. If you want to make a lot of money, then you need to make a lot of effort. Good luck in the games, everything will be fine.

I prefer balance. It's good to have some time off the tables and enjoy life also.

It's hard to find the right balance of poker and having a real life away from the tables. I personally think a schedule might be the way to go. That also helps eliminate exhaustion while playing.

If I can only stick with it now. :)

What no one is going to tell you here . Is that when poker starts effecting your life negativity. When you dont have enough hours in the day to do what must be done. Thats called addiction . Step away from the game get your life and relationships on track. Play poker in moderation . you will thank me later. Poker isn't going anywhere . When you return an open seat will be waiting for you.

No, not the only person. And I think millions of us and I think that's missing at the table and I aces are one after the other this does not want to be distracted.

If you do not have a family, play as much as you want. If you have it, you should keep the balance. Poker is always available 24h / day - the family may not be.

I obsess about playing poker. I hate having to do the non-poker.

Good people, play poker so they do not affect your family life! Play when you have time, do not become addicted. You can find poker at any time of the day and night, but a family, a friend, a job does not expect you all the time.

Hi.
Usually I play poker every day. But sometimes I am on a business trip for a few days, so I can take a short break. Poker is a hobby for me, so I play only when I have free time.
Good luck.

it is always better to play poker when you are well rested and relaxed to make the right decisions.When you win money on this game.it deserves some sacrifices.si it is just for the love of the game.on can always lift your foot and take care of yourself.

Just like everything else in this life it is a matter of balance. In the beginning it is normal the game to be so interesting that you want to play all the time. In a long term you should balance between poker, job, family and your other hobbies. Everything in excess in this life is not good.

I used to have trouble playing poker. I worked every day, I had to take care of children, cook, clean the house. My husband was angry that I spent my free time playing poker and paid him little attention. Now everything has changed. The children grew up. I changed my job. I have another husband who respects my hobby. There was a lot of free time to do your favorite things. We ourselves change our lives as we want. If a loved one does not share your interests, then consider whether he really loves you. Well, of course, everything should be in moderation. I do not devote all day to poker, there are many other favorite activities.

The game should stand in the background, even if it is work. Family and friends will not return as good as time. This should be extra. Enjoy your life. Vseravno you did not win all the money in the world. You still have time to play. Take care of your family, friends, relatives.

I also like the game of poker and I, too, when I have free time I play cash games or quick tournaments, but at night I try not to play poker but have a good night’s sleep before work, to feel fit at work, but then after work in I play free time and I like to win somewhere and try to raise a bankroll and make a profit!

It's really difficult balancing a healthy life outside of poker and spending so much time on the tables at the same time. Usually I like to do more "outdoorsy" stuff like hiking, working out, running, etc. to try and take my mind off poker when I need a break. I do see what you are saying though, trying to find any time to squeeze in a couple tables of poker throughout the day while being busy with other things can be overwhelming with distractions.

If you're finding that your life is falling behind because of poker, then stop playing poker so much. It's hard advice to give, but it is definitely worth remembering that poker is gambling, and finding yourself gambling at points where you cannot afford it (this applies to time just as much as money) is a problem. This doubly applies if you find that you aren't enjoying your poker playing time as much as you used to.

I can listen to someone while playing poker. Call, raise, or fold are easy decisions.

It may seem paradoxical,but if you are tied with your hands and feet with poker,then there are so many of us-you choose life and what happens in it,and temporarily it or not will solve the case,as in the game!good luck!

If it works for you, it's fine. Just learn about how it affects your mental and physical health in the long term.
