    Default How many hours do you play per week?

    How much time do you spend playing poker?

    I would say I usually play about 10 hours a week, mostly on the weekends.


    anyone play full time for a living?

    About 12 hours a week maybe? PT tells me I only 2-table on average (though I also play on a site that doesn't support PT, and sometimes play SNGs alongside ring, so it's probably more like 2.5-3).

    I play between 10-15 hours per week. Wife going away on business this week, make it 30+ this week!

    2 hours a night+ 4 days a week= 8hrs.
    4 hours a day + 2 days a weekend= 8hrs.
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    so about 16+ hours minimum a week. plus
    every other chance I get at work or at home if the wife's watchin' sitcoms. Had to do it this way because I never stopped to figure it out myself. Maybe the wife is right, I'm addicted, and spend far too much time on the computer.

    Probably the same for me as the above poster.

    My wife doesn't mind too much though since she thinks it is weaning me off World of Warcraft. Right...

    Again the wife thing.

    my wife works 3-12 hr. nights/week, so i get in a good 3-4 hours those nights, with another 3-4 sat. and sun. each.

    I wish i could play proffesionally, but i donk off way too many stacks to do that.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    8-10 hours/week I'd say. 2 hours/night two or three nights a week, then usually a good 4-6 hour session on the weekend. I'd like to play more but I can't find the time. I'm just telling myself that I'm in it for the long haul.

    Wife imposes limitiations that should be self imposed, otherwise 15-20 in a typical week.

    poker = 24 hours - sleep - eat - uni - study - dance - work - play = about 2 /3 hours a day. God damn it. I'm doing a part time load next semester just so I can get more poker in. I'm addicted.

    About 30 hours a week. 5 x 6 hour days, or thereabouts.
  18. #18
    maybe 1 hour a day maybe 5 days a week. A good week maybe 6 hours probably closer to 5.

    well, my wife is now gone for the next 3 weeks on business (in addition to the next 3 days). I'll probably play a LOT of poker. Also gain 10 lbs from takeout food, go stir crazy from lack of sleep/staring at monitor and go blind/grow hair on palms from....oh, nevermind.

    We got married before WOW was released :P

    Actually for awhile she played as well, but she eventually got sick of it. I'm trying to teach her poker (not that I'm the best person to teach since I'm not very good), we'll see how that goes.
