In long tournaments I usually stay concentrated for a maximum of 2 hours, and then I get distracted because I get a little bored waiting for the other players to bet when I'm not in the hand.
It is also boring in tournaments that have a very long late registration, where the number of players does not vary and makes a tournament too long.

No, they don't bore me, it may be that there are days that I have less patience, but well if the point is not to get bored, I would recommend opening more tables whenever you feel comfortable and thus have more action .. But if one day my problem is that I get bored. I would go on to play cash games without a doubt, if I am playing tournaments it is to enjoy it and because I like to do it.

Hi! Yes, I have this problem. I try to control it, but it doesn't always work. I start making more mistakes after 2-3 hours, especially when I don't get a good hand. This is more pronounced late in the evening, when I'm not so cheerful anymore.Boredom makes me do unnecessary actions or get distracted by something else.

poker tournaments are basically endurance game mental fortitude
there must be passion and love for the game
poker tourneys teaches us patience and hard work is key to attaining what we desire

Good day!
On the contrary, I like deep stacks with levels of 10 minutes

If you want to play poker profitably (in MTT), you will have to transform that boredom and drive, ghana, will, because the money is at the end. But there are ways to make money from poker outside of tournaments, there are SIT AND GO, which when you sit down, you already have the idea of how long it will last, in which you win little you will soon have to compensate with high volume, soon you will have to spend a lot sitting time in the same way. There is also a cash game option where you can interrupt the section as many times as you like.
Even if you play just for fun, you shouldn't go into tournaments that get bored in the middle, you'll be paying a ticket to a show with two artists and leaving before the main attraction starts. That doesn't seem smart to me.
In short, there are 4 ways:
1 - Learn not to be bored;
2 - Migrate to SNG or Cash Game;
3 - Stop playing;
4 - Continue as is and give money for the game.

Try more expensive tournaments or 6-max hyper-turbo.
In order not to get bored I play at least 4 tournaments at the same time.

I don t think bored is the right word. Excitement should actually rise, the later the tournament gets the more profitable it gets. It is a risk though to get tired and lose focus. It becomes more often you make a stpid push because you didnt quite scan ALL the facts or a call thats way to loose. The task is to minimize that or recognise it change it once you did so anyway (and hopefully got away with that).
