Wtoow, that's huge bro. Thanks for answering. :)

What would you say your average per day play in hours is?

And lastly, if you had an unlimited budget to play how often would play?
Some days only 2 hours, other days i might do a 16 hour session or anything in between. If i had an unlimited budget id play less as id be spending that unlimited budget doing some other things :laugh::D

in this last year he has practically played every day with some exceptions such as the days that the electric fluid has failed or I have had problems with the internet ... I can say that poker is part of my daily life ...!

I like 4-6 hour play time. I don't get to play very often though.

I've played almost every day.
I can say that I play 300 days a year and I have not yet learned.


I am striving to learn and play better and better!


Good luck to everyone!

When it is possible, I play every day and several tournaments (micro and freerolls).

On 1/23/18 I asked Protential (Ryan Laplante) the poker pro who graces us with his time, talent and knowledge (check him out here at CC!) the following questions that are related to this thread, and continuing is his response a couple of days later.

Me (Paul):

"Around 3000 online tournaments and 200 live tournament entries”. I read this quote of your annual schedule and it put me into a fit, and I burnt out just reading, lol….Again, aside from potential earnings, and the fact you can’t win, cash in every game you engage – is there any other reason for this schedule that appears to saturate your time, and mind you I’m not criticizing, I'm reveling and trying to understand this complexity?

Lastly, how do you maintain this high level of poker absorption, exposure as a human being, if there is a reason beyond an organic motivation of love of the game?"

Ryan:

"If you want to make it in the industry it requires hard work and volume. No way around it. In fact starting yesterday (1/24/18), between then and April 9th I have 4 scheduled days off. I expect to work more than 500 hours over the next 11 weeks. Ill then get 3 weeks to relax, then from start of may until end of July ill work around 700 hours.

If i didnt love the game and didnt desire to be successful this grind would burn me out. Also itd burn me out if i didnt find balance every day (hangout with fiance every day before I go work)."

I usually play two days a week tournaments, and the weekend prefer the cash games the sit and go because there is no need to get attached to the specific time

Since im a seasonal worker I play 2-3 small field tournaments every day lasting between 3-5 hours and big field tournaments lasting most of the day on weekends.In the off season I play every day most of the day.If I had unlimited funds I would go to the casinos every day and play most of the day .
