What's the longest pokersession you have played? I once played 30 hours straight, i was running so hot i just couldn't finish. And it was well worth it! But as i remember from "Super System" Doyle once played 5 days straight, the food was brought to the table, and the only breaks he made were 5 minute toilet breaks. That's pretty sick in my opinion.

I wish i could concentrate that long..
5 days?? Some how i doubt it without any sleep For me your 30 hours would be over the top. I believe 16 hours is my max so far

Ive played close to 48 hours straight, tourneys and cash game mixed! Now as I remind it, I dont want to go thru something like this never ever again lol .
Usually my session goes on max 6-7 hours if I have time for poker and no other obligations

If I play more than 4 or 5 hours I start to get bored; the only chance for me to play longer sessions is to get in final stage of tournament with big prizes when your body start to produce adrenaline in bigger quantity than normal
Mah, I never played more than 5 hours ( also because I ususlly play on the evening and next day I have to wake up early in the morning ). 5 days are a huge session: 5 minutes break is good only for pi****g, and what happens in case of *****?
You should do what the old people in casinos do when they find a slot machine they like and don't want to leave it. "Put on some old peoples diapers and just do your business in your pants!!!!" As long as the food and drinks are brought to you who cares
