The longest ive went for having deprived myself from sleep would be about 1 day and a half. However this was before i had setup a scheduled for playing poker. Wont be depriving myself from sleep again lol. To be honest i dont think depriving yourself of sleep to play poker is healthy, especially if you wanna be a poker shark. Not sleeping could affect your decision making when playing and that is a critical part of poker. So with a scheduled you wont have to be deprived of sleep. ONly persons i hear playing for hours upon hours without sleep are pros, cuz playing poker is how they make their bread, but i dont think anyone should be losing sleep over free rolls

The regime of the day is very important to observe, but if I play in a tournament, it happens 8-9 hours))

I prefer to play with a fresh head, but for this holiday is necessary, but when you take a place in the prize zone, then there is really no rest.

I have a good job, so I can not play poker for a very long time. For me, poker, it's a rest and when I see that I'm tired, I go to rest or watch a video of how poker professionals play.

Less than 2 weeks ago I played 48 hours, and every hour after 12, I just got worse and worse. It cost me too. Then for the next 4 or 5 days I felt like crap and I played like crap, but most of the time I'm like Lerts, I have a schedule that I set up everyday. Playing many hours without sleep will cause you to completely lose focus. GL to you

A consistent sleep routine is important to me. For this reason I try not to start a tournament online that I won't have time to finish.

I never play when tired ir If I'm feeling anything less than 100%, life is long, plenty of time to play.

The longest I've played is 32 hours in a live cash game. When I play online I tend to get tired around 15 hours and my bed is close so it makes it harder to keep playing

Most time no sleep and poker playing for me is at live table. At collage with some mates we have played 14 hours and rotating 500$ half of the time.
It was great experience for me. If I except the pain in the back.
If its about online poker, one normal session for me is about 4-5 hours maxumim, cause after that im not that adequate and clean minded. Shortly, im getting tired.

Each time in different ways! I try to give a rest to myself 24 hours after a long session!

To play well, you need a good sleep) Feeling cheerful, it is easier to make decisions.

1k95 is there people in your life that you need to spend time with, but because you are playing so many hours and don't have time to do so?

I was playing at Rivers Casino once while on vacation and I was there for about 34 hours. I kept falling asleep in my seat and was told to leave.

Maximum I could lose and not sleep one night. I advise everyone to alternate the game with rest, as fatigue accumulates in the body and this affects both the mental and physical abilities of the human body. Of course, if the denouement is close, you can wait a little and get out of the schedule. Good luck to everyone, rest at least sometimes.

Зачем так убивать свой организм? Восприятия и принятие решения уже не адекватно!
