All depends on what else is going on in the day. Everything else will take priority for me over poker. Some days i don't even play, when i do, its a few hours max, unless i play tourneys and last deep into it.

On days when I play poker, the minimum is probably about 1-2 hours.

I don't know if I understood the question correctly. When it comes to what is a minimum time to play poker, I have to say it doesn't exist. Just as there is no maximum time to play poker, it simply depends on how much time and desire you have. But I've had days where I only played poker for half an hour but then I only play cash tables, but usually when I play poker then I usually play for a few hours

I opened the game client, saw the tournament, which started a minute ago, registered, at the first hand they gave K K, I thought I was already in the prizes, went all in and lost, closed the game and left, literally a minute and a bit

If you're a serious player, you can't really set a minimum time for your sessions, a maximum maybe (Cash games), but if you're a tournament player, then how could you walk away after a certain amount of time if you are still in ?

I do not know that there is a min time for poker personally. If you are playing at a Casino some have rules and the one that I find at everywhere is, if you join a table you must play for an hour before leaving. Unless you lose all your money. We had a girl in our group that would leave as soon as she won a big pot, be-it 5 min in or an hour, so we told not to come back.

You can play one hand or an 8-hour tournament, you decide how much time you want to spend on the game. Today I finished the freeroll 18 minutes, flush from the king and I risked all in and the opponent had an ace, the only card that beat in this combination, I was betting that he had a different card. And I ended the game after that bad decision.

I used to like the hu hypers on merge, games averaged about 2 minutes, so there was no major time commitment.

8 to 12 hours to see some flops.:) But you should play the number of hours you feel comfortable, so you don't make wrong decisions influenced by tiredness or stop having a healthy life.

Depends, if entering large mtt's this could easily be 7-8 hours +. If you only have an hour you may may play a turbo 1 table. The type of game is based on the time on you have and if you cannot dedicate a certain amount of time you are better off with cash when you can pull out at anytime.

Sometimes I play MTTs (3-7h), sometimes just 1h of cash games and recently I started having a 1 or 2 rounds of quick Hexapro tables (or spins if you like) during my lunch break at work ;) So it all depends on how much time you have or are willing to spend playing
