Before the Lock-downs started I played very little On-line Poker as I got all the action I needed in Pubs, Clubs and casinos, But when Covid closed them all, I returned to On-line Poker and set myself a goal of doubling my $209 Dollar bankroll, I smashed that in less than 12 months and since then have slowed down again to just playing Cardschat Free-rolls and the occasional £1 Dollar ring game.
I think I need another challenge to get back to playing 7 or 8 hours a day, or maybe not! I enjoy my poker games and really do not want it to become a chore! and as long as I win the odd game and it doesn't cost me anything I am happy playing one or two games a week.
I am lucky in the respect that I have time to spare now I am retired, and can do what I want, when I want, and not have to worry about money! I have no mortgage or credit card bills in fact I don't have any debt what so ever! so I don't NEED! to win, it is just nice when I do.

When the fun Stops, STOP!

I try to play every day, on average it turns out 4 hours + on Saturday and Sunday there are even more, depending on how far to go in tournaments

Lately I am playing a few hours more, in total I am playing almost 9 to 10 hours a day, as long as I feel like playing, because if I wake up without desire that day I do not play, in general it will depend if I am in good condition to face a long session of hours playing, but in synthesis that is my hours of play.

I usually play poker for two to three hours starting in the late afternoon, when I get home from work. But if I had more free time available, I believe I would play poker longer. It's really cool to play poker!

I play poker a lot, at least 8 hours, but I definitely advise everyone to take a break for a walk, otherwise there may be health problems due to the fact that you sit a lot

I agree, important to do your daily walk or exercise. Actually the best way is not to sit down while playing or you could get problems with your legs as I experienced a blood clot.

Find a comfortable chair with foot rest so you can stretch your legs, very important if you play poker for several hours.

by the way, I saw bike paths for some streamers who stream poker, I think this is also a solution to the problem

Lately, when I'm home alone, I'm playing a tournament every night. If all goes well I play for about 5 hours, otherwise I play for a lot of an hour. Regards.

My time varies all over the place. Some days a week I tend to play only 1 torment's if that were Fridays I have played 12+. Most days 2-4 hours when playing several games.

For the last 4 weeks, every day. 6 to 14 hours online per day. Prior to that, I was not playing online poker for 10 years. 10 years ago it was 4 to 6 hours a day.

Live, has been 4 to 6 hours a day, 6 to 10 days of the year.

I can play 6-10 hours a day for a week in a row and then not play for about the same amount, probably it all depends on the motivation and desire to play poker at the moment somehow

I devote about 3-4 hours a day to the game, on weekends I can even longer. I would like to devote more time to poker, but besides that there is a job, a family, and now I have also picked up newborn puppies thrown into the trash can. So I'm still a nursing mother)) They are already 3 weeks old, growing)

It really all depends. At times I go through periods where I will play for 10+ hours a day, every single day of the week and other times (if I'm busy at work) I will only play on weekends. And then there are times where I don't play at all because I've been running bad or get too busy with other obligations. However, if I could, I would play 10+ hours every day :D

I play most days for a few hours. Since I play MTTs, I have to be prepared for the long game. Cash games are just too boring or they would be perfect for short sessions. I often end up donking off from boredom so I stick with tournies lol
