What number of games per month do you consider a good and realistic volume to play online?

Hi @Baco. What kinds of games are you talking about? Tournaments? Cash games? What buy-ins/levels do you play? Overall I think that this is really dependent on your ability to multi-table, the types of games you play, and what your bankroll is. Like so many things in poker, the real answer is, "It depends."

it really depends on your schedule and goals. For most part-time players, somewhere around 300–500 games a month feels realistic without burning out. If you’re playing full-time, you might aim for 1,000+, but consistency and quality decisions matter more than just volume.

Yeah really depends on what you are playing and how many tables at the same time.

I can play tournaments for many hours, but if I multitable I'll need a break after a few hours already.

I've been playing tournaments three times a week for sure, but there's nothing to brag about yet (((

For me, since I mostly play freerolls and only move up when I build a bit of bankroll from them, I try to play several tournaments at the same time depending on what my bankroll allows.
Usually, I play around 2 tournaments a day, and when I can afford it, maybe 4 or 5 at the same time. There’s not much consistency, though—I can go a whole month without playing, and then the next month play every day for a full week.
I’m not sure what would be considered “a lot,” but maybe something like playing up to 10 tournaments simultaneously, about 5 days a week, at most.

If you want to become a professional you have to play at least 300 tournaments per month

If playing full-time I'd hope for 750 or more tournaments per month.

For me, it’s not about how many days I play, but the total number of hands or tournaments I put in to outrun the variance. If you're playing cash games, a solid goal for a semi-pro or a dedicated amateur is usually around 20k to 50k hands a month

I play an average of 200 tournaments a week, but I think that's very little.
