I'll sleep enough when I'm dead. Besides, we all know there's no getting back lost time.

im not one to say since i will play until 4am sometimes, but the best for is to set a time limit on how long your going to play for a session. and if i happen to roll real good il keep going...and hopefully stop before i lose anything. but once you realize how many times youv passed your time limit (regardless of your hot/cold streak), youl kinda get this voice that says, enough is enough lol.

fi the cards are coming and u don't have morning committments, keep playing. You only get on a real streak every now and again. When the cards go south, get out.

always a tuff one. I get really upset withmyself when i let the love of poker defeat what my body is telling me. I can tell you so many cases where i have put in my 6 hours for the day and it `12:30 at night im exhausted yet i decide to do more tournamnets. ALWAYS a mistake. My brain is exhausted and my greed just got the best of me. So listein to your body.... Dont depict it on luck because good players dont live by luck . Just hours of effective poker playing.

When you're tired enough that you don't feel like your playing your A-game, or if all the fishes leave then get up. When I'm playing I try not to think about the money, just tell yourself they are chips. If you use proper bankroll management you'll be fine.

I think you all may be missing something, especially if your married. You go to bed, directly to bed, whenever your wife, or in my case, directs me to go. I'm probably not winning online anyway and maybe, just maybe, I may get lucky...well I can alway play again once she goes to sleep.
