Experience makes us more experienced and therefore better and stronger. Experience is gained only through hours, days, weeks and months of play, so in order to become experienced, you must first of all be patient. Without patience, the player will not develop and improve.

you play and gain experience, you often do some actions automatically, distance and concentration are important, and there are so many distractions around

I think that playing a lot of poker teaches you to function at the tables and I do think it's good to play long hours of poker...

It depends on how you deal with what happens, if you lose and it doesn't affect your life then you have a very strong mentality and this helps you, on the other hand if it bothers you every moment then poker is harming you. In my case it has helped me a lot

On average, I play 4-5 hours a day. I try not to play for more than 5-6 hours because I start to get tired and lose patience. But in general, of course, more experienced players will always be more skillful, it's quite obvious :)

There is definitely no easy path but the more you play the stronger you become. Because you gain experience. But you have to play the game thinking. Analyzing your hands and learning from them. Studying hands and learning is the fastest way.

Yes, playing poker for a long time makes us stronger You learn to emphasize important points for yourself, you learn and play The game becomes more interesting every time you advance through the tournament, and if you have been playing poker for a long time, then you are already a patient person, which is quite important in poker

It makes me more foolish. I see all my bad beats and I try to do the same and I win 50 percent of the time.

It certainly makes us stronger...
Imagine spending hours playing with these guys who have been playing for over 10 years and haven't improved an inch in their game...
You have to be extremely strong to watch them at the tables and still be able to think after doing it...

It will depend exclusively on you, there are many former players who got sick of playing so much, but playing without abuse and taking notes, you can follow your evolution, good luck and success

I think that playing for longer doesn't make much difference in your evolution and it's better to play 4 hours and absorb as many things as possible than to play 8 hours plus play distracted or play without desire or motivation

In poker there is not only strict natural selection, and also the strong influence of luck over a short sample of hands. I believe that you either have a love for poker or you don’t. It will not be possible to learn it if you have been playing for several days.
The more you play, the more experience you get.

It gives you resilience but I would recommend breaks. It’s quite an intense game.

Poker is based on study and dedication. Without study or dedication you will always be weak.

If you play for a long time in a certain tournament, it gives you more confidence, but if you lose too much, you should think again.

For most people you become stronger, with a few they start to have "lucky" hands and opening light just because at some point they won with that hand and has a memory of it. But generally yes.

The more you play, the more experience you will gain, but you also need to relax to make your memories better. In poker, you also need to have basic knowledge and be able to stay calm in any situation. Also, if you can hire a good coach with whom your results should improve in the future.

I think it makes you stronger, by playing for a long time, you have more experience when it comes to making decisions.

The more you play poker and try to learn every day you will improve your game, as long as you put dedication and always give your best.

I think it depends of your mental, anyway if you play a lot of hand per day you will win a lot of experience and this is really useful, just stay calm and never forget your gameplan

Long-term exposure to poker provides opportunities for gaining experience and developing strategic skills. Players who consistently engage with the game often become more adept at reading opponents, making better decisions, and understanding the nuances of different situations.

It depends on the person's mentality, as most people tend to not give importance to details after being familiar with certain situations for a while, they can end up making decisions that would not be the best in the long term.
