How much time do you play online Poker in aday ? 4 hours or less? 6-8 hours aday? 8or more hours?
Why do you play poker is it for the money ,fun,or cuz you have no friends ? And do you think of your online poker people as friends even thou you have never meet face to face?

when im playing good, i could play all day, when im not getting the cards.... ill be done in an hour, it all depends on how i feel and how im playing, and i play for some extra cash, and for the rush.

I will say I do play 2-3 hours aday in the day time I do work from home and I will sit and while I'm on the phone . But the more I play it I do play the same people day after day and I'm starting to talk to them like a friend even thou I have never meet them face to face. And it is making me play diffent I feel bad taking their money day after day . But they keep coming back to try to win their back so I keep playing them .

I play about 4 hours aday and I do know what about playing with people online I think of some of them as a friend in some ways . But just cuz of the small talk at the table you do get to feel the person out . But most of the time they lie

It all depends on my schedule how much i play, i havent had a lot to do lately so i have been playing quite a bit maybe 5/6 hours a day or something like that. I usually play between 3/4 hours but im growing fonder of the game and need more time playing it lol.

I dont have regular job, only work i do is related to computers, so I either sit at computer playing poker or i do something else related to it. Most of the day play poker because i can afford to do that (lucky me). Today some 10 hours combined, but it is not every day i do that. Most of the time i play some 9 hours.

no kaiser if you get bored so quickly and want to do other things then that is definitley not good for your game. Sometimes i can sit for hours without getting bored, especially if im winning lol

I once red a thread by a guy on another forum who played for 50hours straight to become leader of the i think titan leaderboard .... well he made it but i think he lost 10years of his life that just CAN'T be healthy man.
he also lost i think 400$ in cashgame because after 10 hours he lost his a-game but because he became first in the leaderboard he got 2500$ or what you get for the first place ... thats just so sick
