How many hours can you play?

Mariadelaluz · May 3, 2020

It´s for amateurs.
How many hours can you play per day?
It´s not easy to play correctly if I´m tired after work or house job.
Because each person has the limit to decise thing.
Poker requires us to decise each hand (4 times or more).
Therefore, it makes me tired after games.

I can play max. 2-3 hours, but I don´t play every day.

I play mostly in the evenings. 2 hours each.

Only about 2 hours before I start losing focus. I probably need to work on that haha!

If the game is fun, then you can play 12 hours a day!

Normally get a couple SnG in a week. Seems to work best for my life.

My record is 14 hours. But that was quite awhile ago. I streamed for 6 hours yesterday.

I can play 10 hours and more ..but it's to difficult if you have a job and you must leave a tournament with good prise..

It really kind of depends on the person. If you love the game (and you have the time) you can play as much as you'd like, but if you're JUST beginning I'd tell you to start with small sessions and obviously small stakes, and then gradually increase the amount of time you're studying/playing as time progresses.

Start small (stakes wise and session length wise) and gradually increase the amount of time you're studying/playing as time progresses.

Usually i play for around 2 to 3 hours but can extend that to around 5 hours when needed without serious hit on my game. Moe than that though definitely makes me tired which is never good for the game.

Well ... if you are a tournament player ... normally one should prepare to play more than 10 hours ... since if we reach the final table that will be approximately the time necessary for the final table ...!

axelnkr · May 4, 2020

It depends if you work or not, and what kind of game you play, like cash tables or tournaments. I think some types of play carry less attention than others, for example, be in a MTT on the top of the chips, average or in the bottom

RealLez · May 4, 2020

I can play long enough) so long that I can simultaneously do some other things and just enjoy the process itself.

angelamsmith05 · May 4, 2020

2 to 3 hours at a time but don't play every day.

Darth_Moola · May 4, 2020

If I have enough time, I can play for several hours, but I need to divide it up into sections. 1-2 hours each. If I go longer than that at one sitting then I make more mistakes.

FIERROS · May 4, 2020

Usually I play for around 2 to 4 hours.

I can paly 12 hours straight if its a live cashgame or a tournament. Gettin tired is part of the attriton in big stack tournaments..Most losse concentration over time.

some39thing · May 4, 2020

I need to take small breaks every few hours, but i can play all day

myquickwit · May 4, 2020

When I was younger I could play all day. Now I start to fade after 4 hours.

Kobevan · May 5, 2020

I can spend all my weekend in poker, but it all depends from my mood and hands, when I see that it is my lucky day I just can't stop playing.

valetgll · May 5, 2020

The game of poker does not bother me. For me, this is entertainment and there may be some kind of additional income in the future to my budget. But I try not to play a lot. Otherwise, poker will not be interesting.

rustixxx · May 5, 2020

Hello everyone. I can play three 4 hours a day, no more, because my brains are already tired. but if there is excitement and there is an incentive, I continue to play.

akmost · May 5, 2020

For MTT players there is not such thing , if you have a deep run you must retain your full focus because the money is always up top.

Every time I play SNG or cash games I don't play more than 3-4 hours, I get bored.

gichka97 · May 5, 2020

Most appropriate way to play is to be free all day, especially if you play tournaments. I have played tournaments for around 10 hours and to be honest at the end of them, I felt very tired when the concentration must be on highest level. You should know your limit. 5-6 hours per day is good for playing poker. You should try to avoid playing it long, when you have worked the same day or have other obligations. Never play when you have a bad day at the office or in the family. That can be painful.

How many hours can you play?
