Sometimes I run myself into the dirt playing 20 to 26 hours in a row and it gets exhausting especially playing at the tables. I’m just curious how many hours you all play before you get tired, I was always told you can never tell the time at the casino and it’s definitely true. I stay at the tables for hours and I just forget what time of day it is, sometimes without eating. That’s the good thing about card rooms they serve you food even during the pandemic.



It varies, if I’m in a casino I like to play for two hours or a double-up, whichever comes first, then break for 15-30min before changing tables and or stakes. I had a sick run at Commerce one time where I did that like 9 times and won each time. It was a good day. :) … but if I’m playing online, like i am currently, (no casinos in over a year), then it could be two hours to 8hours a day depending on my account size. I always believe less is more, but actually doing it is another story… if I have over $500 online then I try to only play an hour a day at a larger stake, looking to scoop like $20-$50/day playing $0.25/$.50 or $0.50/$1 cash games.

Not a good idea to play 2-tournament at the same time!

It's like playing many hours in a row ! You get confused sometime and it's draining too! What happen I finally was able to find the password for the $100.00 cardschat and I was playing deep in the $50.00 Social Media tournament so I was playing both tournament not a good idea it's tiring and sometime you want to register to 2- tournament in case you get eliminate early !

Hi bro! Great question. In many ways, it depends on the tasks that I set for a particular session. This is usually from 4 to 8 hours a day. It happens that I have a day off, more free time and I can play for 12-20 hours - until I turn off. In many ways, it also depends on the tournaments. If we talk about food, then I try to eat every 4 hours. Mostly carbohydrates, not forgetting about proteins and fats. From simly I take glucose in tablets (2 at a time, but no more than 4-6 tablets a day). My biggest poker day was 32 hours. After that, I slept for 48 hours. I think this is not right. Less is better, but more often. Good luck bro!

I am a tournament player and it is difficult for me to determine the time that I play, I can win a tournament, but it will take 4-5 hours, and I can lose in 20 minutes. On average I participate in 2-3 tournaments a day.

usually 3 hours a day I play, already at night after work, in my opinion the time you use to play poker should be one where you feel comfortable and confident to play, because if you play against the rushed time you will not fully play your hands, take the time you want and plan it well so that it doesn't take away your daily activities in life, enjoy the time with your dear series, don't return to poker as an obligation but as a hobbit or a way to have fun..... Yes in your case you want to live from poker, just plan it well and study enough to be more prepared when playing and to be able to live from this beautiful game. Take care of yourself.

I play poker everyday and I only play for 2 hours. Discipline is what matters here.

I'm a beginner and I play for fun, I don't have a clear goal to make a lot of money playing poker, poker is my hobby! Usually if I have time I can play 4-5 hours, but that's only when I have a lot of free time! If poker were the main source of income, then I would probably play 8-10 hours every day, making one day off! Good luck at the tables!

Of course that time increases when I'm playing tournament.

Each person has a different time when he can fruitfully play the game. And it depends on many factors. My time is 3-4 hours. then a break for 30-40 minutes. I mean cash games.
