How much poker do you play a day?

Nickwastaken · Dec 23, 2013

On a typical day i average around 5-10 games, mainly freerolls on pokerstars, some SnGs... I sneak in a few from 888 once in awhile but only when im near my computer... Otherwise my pokerstars ipad App is the way i play

How many games do you play on average a day?

This can be tables sat at or tournies joined... But i guess it may have been more apprpriate to ask how many hours are spent playing.... But anyone like me playing 8 hours day doesnt want to admit how much time we spend doing something for such "minimal gain" .... But i believe its for the fun, and the knowledge learned... Just like life

If i started counting hours id wake up and go to work lol.. So, how many tables/tourneys do you play a day?

I use to play only SnG and sometimes cash games. I play at least 2 SnG every time I play (4/5 days per week). If i cash at one of them i play one more, if i don´t cash after the second SnG I simply log off and play the next day and try again. That´s what i do.

I live it! But my goal at the moment is to gain as much experience as possible to be able to take on high stakes poker starting next year.

well I have tried 3-4 by day, but tilt ever do me lose in bubbles.
I dont know but if you play everyday, you be locked to win, you see going well, but a donk win you with trash. so, dont play everyday or will be in an eternal tilt.

I average approximately 3 hours a day, depending n how I'm feeling and if I'm playing MTTs or not (that can really lengthen a session.)

AlfieAA · Dec 23, 2013

maybe 1-2 hours a day, would prefer it to be 3-4

horizon12 · Dec 23, 2013

4-5 hours PLO, and 3-4 hours for reading forum and diferent articles.

vinylspiros · Dec 23, 2013

6 hours a day minimum. Over 3k hands a day usually.

adam76 · Dec 23, 2013

8 hours a day minimum.freeroll and cach game

Nickwastaken · Dec 30, 2013

Ive seen hp to 8 hours here a day.... At what point do you consider yourself a professional?.. Amateur?

Would you say its time invested or money earned/invested that makes you "professional?"

Goathair · Dec 30, 2013

Usually about 1-3 hours for me.

Isnt poker a "job to do" too?

What if you do have a job to do, how many hours can you squeeze in still?

estefanetti · Dec 30, 2013

in my best time i played 4 or 6 hs in a day , actually i played about 3 or 4 cash tables.

dealio96 · Dec 30, 2013

I'm a poker junkie. I play at least 8 hours a day everyday. Sometimes I think I need help but if its considered a hobby and I'm making money while having fun, I don't see any harm in playing all day.(try to take small breaks for exercise)

XXPXXP · Dec 30, 2013

No fixed schedule.
but I think If i play CC league, I guarantee myself playing at least 2hours per week.

LOL

RickH1983 · Dec 30, 2013

Normally about 5-8 hours a day

jazzaxe · Dec 30, 2013

I play cash no limit texas holdem full ring at .05/.10 four tables at Bovada at least one hour per evening. I play forum free rolls on Black Chip, Bovada and Carbon Poker when able.

fordman427 · Dec 30, 2013

5-8 a day

trent32la · Dec 30, 2013

usually im playing ~4hrs a day and playing around 10-15 tourneys a day....I also like to watch online poker as well when I can on the weekends...

jsaw · Dec 30, 2013

Much less than in the past. Three or four times a week for 2-3 hours.

crusinnn · Dec 31, 2013

I'm on my ipad 24/7 . I'm an addict but I used to waste a lot more in the past aleast now it's fun and can make some extra $$

rugby0 · Dec 31, 2013

4-6 hours a day spent on poker. Playing reading or at poker class.

rdm4k · Dec 31, 2013

atm I play almost 8/9 hours per session (when i m playing so kind of three times a week). If i am playing over the 7° hour that's mean I am running good coz i am still in a tournament.
Obv sometime my session finish after few hours only.

In the past I was pplaying much more regularly, that's mean that I was playing almost all the hours I was awake except for 3 h about lunch time and 3 h about dinner time. I used to be off one or two days per week.

If u grind for a living but even if you dont and grind to earn extra money (and blabla) giving to the game a kind of prefessional approach you end up playing all the time you have (for RB, to cap leaderboards, ect) plus spend the rest fixing your game so reading forums, books, watching videos.

A famous grinder (dont remember the name now) once said: if online poker isnt an obsession for you, means you are not going to crash the game (quite common even for those who dont crash it coz this game may become a disease called gambling addiction)
