I did during the Lock downs, at least the first one, but at some point I burnt out and now I rarely play. Having my weekly Live game stopped by the Lock downs I turned back to On-line poker for my Poker Fix, You need to understand I started playing On-line some 20 years ago just playing freerolls until I had won enough to Buy-in to games. I did this on several different sites so never made a lot of money, but making money was the last thing on my mind.

I wanted to get better at the game so I wouldn't show myself up in a live event, I took the knowledge I had acquired into the Live events and that is where I made most of my money, On-line was just used to practice, and for Fun! Then the Government shut down all the Pubs and casinos so I only had On-line Poker to get my Fix!

I decided that if I was as good at the game as I thought I was, then there should be no problem in making money from On-line Poker, as I had a PokerStars account already with just over $200 Dollars in it, I tried to double it, Which I managed to do in no time at all, Playing a maximum of Ten games every day and I joined Cardschat so I could play in the Freerolls on offer every day. I actually trebled it to over $600 Dollars, Then for no apparent reason I just got bored with it all.

Even now after the Lock Downs have been lifted, my usual Pub I used to play at has re-opened, I find it hard to return to the Live scene I once Loved. Covid Lock Downs did a lot more than just stop the Virus, They did a lot of damage to a lot of people that cannot return to their old way of Life, and I am just another Victim of it. Will I ever get the Poker Bug back? I doubt it, Even Cardschat Freerolls have stopped on PokerStars so really there is nothing to get me interested in Poker.

I might even stop following Cardschat one day as I try to keep my Platinum Status open but some days I just cannot be bothered, one way or the other, I had hoped that keeping up with the Forum would help me find that spark again, but it's failing to give me any interest in playing Poker Live or On-line.
Good Luck to everyone that Loves the game as much as I once did and if you do see me at a table on PokerStars Say Hi!

Not every day. One needs a digital break now and again. I will not play when tired or distracted. Weekends are. A good opportunity for me to play usually.

Pretty much an everyday player of freerolls. But don't play much real poker anymore. Live,. once a month at a home game and less than monthly at the casino.
Love the power path series at stars...
Golf is the thing I'm working on tho. Would love to play golf daily.
Working on it...just need to be able to afford to retire....also working on it....

It depends on how you view poker and what you want from it.
Players who have a commitment and want to make a living from the game or have numbers dedicate 5 to 6 days a week to studying and grinding.
But if you take poker as a hobby, you won't be charged too much.

When I am at home, I usually play each day, even if it is only a spin'n'go or freeroll.

Yes, I try to play everyday, but if not, it’s ok, it’s not an obligation.

I play almost every day, but not for long, and most importantly, it doesn't affect my results.

I mostly play freerolls, and it's tempting to play as many of them as possible, but not when I'm busy or exhausted.

Once I play, I get a hyperfixation to the game, so after a few days I prefer to take breaks and return when I'm ready with full energy.

In short, no, I prefer not to play daily 😅

I stayed away from the tables for more than a year and now I got some free time in my agenda. So I determine to myself returning to play more often. I'm planning to play on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and make other things on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I'm trying this schedule. My goal is not to play tired or without focus.

A regular player plays every day. I play every day, I really like to play poker, I don't think there's anything wrong with it, but if you're playing off the bench and you're losing a lot of money, that would be bad and you should stop playing.
