I am reluctant to take a break from poker as I would feel I am missing out on free money, since I mostly play freerolls.

That 5-minute break is really necessary. You can go to the bathroom, you can relax your mind or even have a glass of something.

a break of 2-3 days works well for me. after such a time I am hungry to play and I am committed and concentrated to play my best game

If you play poker online, then the best option for you is always to plan to wager a certain number of hands per session. This is the goal that many regulars set for themselves. Why does it work so effectively? So you will have a clear and unambiguous goal that must be fulfilled. You see how many hands you still need to play, and you will have a specific moment to stop the game and end the session.

Sometimes you have to take a break from poker, and spend more time with your family.

In my case I have not taken breaks from poker because I play few days, perhaps this is what has helped me not to get bored of poker

If you play for fun, you don't need breaks. If you play poker to earn money, then of course you need to regulate the playing time. Otherwise, you can lose your health and money.

I don't take breaks, I know it's bad, but I love poker, it entertains me, like you can't imagine, I play it practically every day after work, but if it happens to me that because I work away from home for a while I stop playing it for a while, an estimated time of 2 years on two occasions. But if you talk about the 5-minute breaks, they fly by and if the break is when there are only a few left for the final table, I always go out and stretch my legs, take a breath and that's enough for another hour of session 😊👍

On a poker break I get up and moving around usually a trip to the bathroom and a smoke. Usually smoke first cause it’s more important 🤣🤣

I never stopped to study, but for mental rest.

I always studied after games. What I learned, I put into practice the next day, it worked for me.

At the moment, I often take forced breaks due to problems with communication and electricity. Before, before the war in Ukraine, I played much more often. In general, I took breaks 1-2 days a week.

the ideal is to review your game, the decisions you made and see what you can continue to improve on, there will always be something to improve and learn, also clear your mind to return with the desire to continue playing

As practice has shown, in a six-minute break, you can do everything that is necessary for further play)
