Daily poker hours

M13A13 · Mar 5, 2025

Have you ever stopped to think about how long you play poker per day, per week and per month.

Perhaps measuring your own playing time can be a strategic thing, because as poker is a mental game, playing too much can be detrimental to your own skills in the game.

Tracking your poker playtime is crucial, as overplaying can lead to fatigue and poor decision-making, affecting your overall performance.

I play when I have free time, less on weekdays and more on weekends. On average, I play 4-5 days a week. On weekdays 3-5 hours and on weekends 5-8 hours.

I used to play for 6-12 hours a day, seven days a week, I was very tired, but now I don't play every day for several hours, there's just nowhere to play, they blocked my favorite rooms.

I play less nowadays , less time smaller stakes fewer games . No much free time , and also no encouragement to try play . more (like a good or big win )

Playing poker too long can't hurt skills. On the contrary, many actions will become automatic. And it helps to save time for deeper analysis in difficult situations at the poker table. So everyday play can only help, not hurt.

I try to keep somewhere around 3 hours a day

I definitely don't play as much as I would like to. I usually have time to play in the evenings, but I almost never play for more than 4-5 hours because my health is pretty bad. After a heart attack, even poker is quite difficult for me.

Lately I play very little, maximum 1-2 tournaments a day in online poker. I had periods in my life when I played almost every day in cash at micro limits at 4 tables at the same time. I want to say from my own experience that 6-8 hours of play fly by unnoticed, especially if you listen to your favorite music during the game. I think in order not to harm your own skills in the game, as you wrote, you just need to listen to your inner state. If the body feels that it can still play and gets pleasure from it, then in this case you can continue to play, but if the game goes through a person's strength and fatigue, then it is better to stop playing as soon as possible and go to rest. In general, it is advisable to periodically take days off and rest from playing poker, so as not to burn out, and always play with pleasure.

i like to play in the afternoon on sunday, there are usually weaker players and i will enter at the beginning of the tournament

I play almost daily online...just how much I play is a matter of interpretation...you ask my wife, and I play "ALL DAY"...you ask me, and I would venture to say I play on average 1 - 2 hours a day. Family events come first, especially babysitting for our grandchildren. I play when I have down time.

You need to take a day off from poker, otherwise you might go crazy.😄

romerim · Apr 1, 2025

In the past I played at least 10 to 12 hours a day, nowadays, at most 2 hours.

I totally agree, a well planned schedule is almost as important as studying. Being an MTT poker player requires long hours of playing but taking a couple of days off and 1 to study on the week is fundamental to ease my mind and fresh things up!

what kind of tournaments do you play for 2hours only? Spins?

NSX_Amfe2nat · Apr 7, 2025

For me, poker is now a way to make money. I play 6 days a week for 8-14 hours

dreamer13 · Apr 7, 2025

In the long run, there is no luck in poker, but even in the short run, it is much longer than most people think.In poker, not only the most talented, persistent and persistent wins, but also the most rational.2-3 hours of play per day.

Great point—tracking playing time can definitely help maintain focus and avoid burnout. Balancing sessions with breaks has improved my game too.
