I think that if you play for a long time at the table, then any break is beneficial.

For me, 5 minutes is quite enough, if a couple of minutes is not enough, then it's okay.

I think that in each break they should increase the rest time, example 5, 10, 15 and so on

Pause

I don't think that a 5 min pause is enough for a brain relaxation from concentration and deep thinking... I usually go for 15 Min Pause

Well I can tell you two things about it and one is to say that rest is necessary and two is that something similar happens to me, I lose concentration, I lose the thread of the game and it is difficult for me to take the reins, but I only see it as a matter to improve, to correct and to make an effort to concentrate even more in that moment knowing that I am doing it wrong at the moment.

The break is necessary and it is good that it takes place at the same time in all poker rooms.

I do enjoy the break, it allows me to get a drink or hit the lavatory Without it, we would be thirsty and not hitting the bathroom. It is vital to be able to feel good when you play your games.

I think all the sites must have got on top of this. I remember at one point the breaks being out of synch but that was a long time ago now.

Good, because I usually arrange entries for the next competitions during breaks, or I go to the bathroom.
But it’s bad because this time isn't enough to rest and one gets out of rhythm. I usually fail parties after breaks, even when I’ve been in the lead before.

opinion

I believe that rooms need to take one break every two hours, but at least 10 minutes.

for me, rest affects me both badly and well. It helps calm your nerves, but you also need to be a little more passive after it

In my opinion, a 5-minute break cannot greatly affect the concentration of the game, the opponents at the table have not gone anywhere, the game will continue with them after the break. And without it, too, it is impossible, not to play in a diaper) and you can have a quick snack during the break, and make tea or coffee.

10 min break often would be cool (for ex. take a bath) but in every hour? It is too much. 5 min is OK.

I think 5 minutes is perfect. But, it would be a good idea to have a 10-15 mins break every 4hs or so..
