Today I had absolutely nothing to do. Summer just started, my friends are all busy today, my girlfriend started summer school so off I went and fired off pokerstars.
I just finished my longest session of 3 hours and 40 minutes (12 tabling). I stopped because I had to pee
Minutes: 220
Hands: 2806
Hands/hr: 765
What was your longest session? (duration of session and # of hands)

Not sure off the top of my head, but I'd say I've put in at least a 7 hour session.

Not sure if you're counting live poker as well as online; live I've had 16+ hour days. Online...much much less.

I recorded a seven-hour and four minute session earlier this month.
Live, I've gone about 20 hours.
|

That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

Live: 14 hours.
Online 5 hours.
I have no idea why it's so easy to keep on truckin' playing live, but online you just don't care after like 3 hours.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

My times are about the same. I think sitting at a table with human interaction is more interesting than sitting in a dark room 8 tabling for hours. I mean who enjoys sitting at a desk all day?

no more than about 6 hours in one sitting (donkament). I put in five straight 12 hour days once when I wanted a laptop from FPPs really really bad.
I don't recommend doing that.

First week in Aug I may do 4 straight 8hr days and 4 at night. I am on vacation by myself but not going anywhere, and longer will have the family showing up so it's no go
I've done 18+ hrs before with only stopping for breaks and to get food and pee. I ate at th computer. I could do 24 straight with just pee breaks easily.
