How Much time do you spend?

[vwpunk]

playing poker online in any given week? I spend a lot of time on the internet for my job, but I can't play poker at work obviously. I only get to play maybe a few hours a week with my work schedule. Just wondering what kind of time a normal online poker player may spend..

40 hours or more

For me, 10 hours/week tops. My dissertation has been calling me

I would say 20+ hours a week. If I have the week off of work that number will double or triple. Also with summer here I take more days off from poker as there are plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy. In winter put the number at 30+ hours.

I used to spend almost every spare moment playing when I was out of work due to health problems. So back then I'd easily play between 40-60 hours just depending on the week (that time includes both online and off).

Nowadays, I'm back in good enough shape to work again, so for the past few months I've only played probably 10-20 hours at the very most. Except for this past week and a half, I haven't played at all since my pc crashed...

But now we're back up and running as of today, so gonna try to get those hours back up

wow, I wish i could find the time to play 20+ hours a week.

find the time. quit your job. play poker well enough that you can play for a living... then you will play min 40 hours a week. then youll see how much poker really sucks.

Well I don't think I'm going pro anytime soon, so I'd better not quit my day Job. I'd love to play poker for a living, but don't really have a bankroll to establish myself and really be able to pay the bills... I'm small time, Baller on a budget...

Do you play professionally? fulltime poker guy?

Where do you play at, and whats your username? I might want to see how a person who plays poker for a living (other than pros) plays.

[liladypokerpro]

I agree that would be quite interesting to see.

[DaGreenster]
