Yesterday I played one tournament for 9 hours. I found that it is better to focus on one table for longer as you start learning each player's patterns and behaviors. I got postision 7 and a $59. Not a bad day.

I can have full focus on 4, MAX 5 tables. If I were to take more, the quality of play would suffer.
I play 3-4 hours a day on average, one day more, one day less.


I start to struggle on 3 tables. So I normally stick to 2 or 1 these days

Probably 1 or 2 hours a day. Only for big events or tournaments I play the whole day if needed. But normally I only play a few cash games or sit n Go's :)

I play an average of 4 to 6 hours, it might be less, depending on how it is going on the tables. Most days 6 hours, but if I lose 10 dollars a day, it is cut short playing poker. But if I do well in tournaments, then it will be 6 hours. I really determine on how it goes that days playing in 3 or 4 tournaments, low buy ins.

poker

Unfortunately, there are days when I play online poker 20 hours a day and have no positive results. Then I feel very bad and want to quit this activity altogether. But 24 hours pass and I am drawn to the poker table again. Could it be a disease?

Apparently, on average I play 3-6 hours a day. Sometimes when I have more free time, I can play even 8-10 hours a day, but such days are very rare.

Since I mostly play in tournaments, the time I spend playing is different. Sometimes I can play for 2-3 hours, and sometimes 6-8 hours. Also, I don't always have the opportunity to play poker every day, so I have breaks in the game. It also happens that I take a break for a few days to get some rest from the game ....

Now I play a little, about 1-5 hours a day. These are mainly freerolls CardsChat. I play in the evenings when I have free time. At one time I played cash for 6-10 hours a day, I played at 4-5 tables simultaneously. I think I could play at 6 or more tables at the same time if I had another monitor. Thanks to the Hold'em Manager, I control the situation at each table, so I can play so many tables.

The longer you sit in a tournament, the better.

Hey everyone :icon_rabb

This is information gathering so I can see how I am doing in comparison to other players :D.
You don't have to answer all questions. Choose any one.

On average, how many hours do you play a day?:confused::confused:
[I play from around 17:30 to 02:00 the next day. so about 8 and a half:cool::cool:]

What do you think is a healthy number of hours?
[5? :confused:]


Also how many tables can you fully focus on at once?

What are the best ways to cope with fatigue?

Thank you for your time

Regards,
P
I think about six hours a day, it all depends on how long the tournaments last, which are what I play the most.:vollkomme

My time depends on the success of the game. You can lose immediately. And you can get stuck for 5-6 hours. But no more than one game per day.

I play MTTs 8+ hours on average, drink beer and smoke cigarettes for fatigue. My optimal number of tables depends on the MTTs importance(4 is ok for freerolls). Healthy number of hours - maybe less than 4.

It depends on the tournament. In general I like hyper turbo tournaments. On average 3 to 5 hours, but not every day. On weekends, I usually play 5 to 8 hours!;);)
