I have a pattern of playing for a month 3-4 hours every day, then taking two weeks off. By the end of the month I'm not winning as much and when I come back after the two week break I start winning at my usual rate again.
Light years ahead of the competition.

I think I have went 2 days without playing poker in the last year. In March/April of this year, while still playing, I didn't play as much as I would have liked.

I've been on a break lately, about to hit $2-4 party with a vengeance when I start again, working on getting a healthy roll for $3-6. With a job I won't need to withdraw money anymore from my BR, which is really good. I'd be playing 5-10 by now had I not.
