How often do you play?

How many hours of poker (delineate between home games and casino) do you play in the typical month?

Just wondering what's average.

I'm at 176 hours over 4 months, or 44 hrs per month (roughy 1 session per week)

Re: How often do you play?

Been keeping tabs with poker income app since September and I've logged 82 hours in various home games. Unfortunately no chance yet to play in a live casino I don't keep track of my online play (unabomber)

I envy all the ample opportunities you guys get to play in the brick and mortar.

Re: How often do you play?

I average ~70 hours / 12 sessions per month.

I have only home games in my five game rotation. Stakes running from $0.25/$0.50 to $1/$2. There isn't a casino poker room less than 3 hours away, though there are raked illegal games close by.

Re: How often do you play?

7 hours a week at my home game, plus the occasional home game elsewhere, the rare trip to AC, Charleston, Delaware, or PA casinos -- and then those 60-hours playing time extended weekends four times a year at BARGE meetups (Las Vegas, AC, Foxwoods, others).

Re: How often do you play?

I average 1.5 home game sessions a week. About 5 hours per session. So I guess approx 30 hours a month of home games.

I play in raked games occasionally, prob 1-2 a month.

Re: How often do you play?

10hrs once a week at a home game and a bi-monthly game of Chinese Poker for about 6 hours.

I'd play more but finding players and decent games ($1/2 - $2/5) can be tough.

Re: How often do you play?

typical week: one 6 - 8 hour home game session of $1/2NL; one or two 8 - 16 hour casino sessions of a variety of games and stakes from $1/2 or $2/5 NL and PLO to $4/8 to $10/20 LHE and mixed games. a $20/40 limit mixed game occasionally runs lately and when i'm feeling like taking a shot bankroll wise i have played that game every month or so. i'm a winning player in all games but the $20/40 (stuck 2.5 buy-ins over 7 sessions). i wish i could blame it on sample size (and the sample size is small of course), but the truth is that i've got a lot of work to do in all the stud-structure games and i don't have nearly the edge in the flop games as i wished i did against that player pool.

Re: How often do you play?

Right now I am playing about 5-10 hrs a week in home games. Until I found a bigger game last week the biggest was a .25/.50 NLHE/PLO game with tons of action (enough so we scared off a lot of our player pool.)

When I'm in the US I play enough that ppl are surprised to find out that I have a job, wife, and kids.

Re: How often do you play?

Once a month about 7-8 hours at home game. Online I used to play about 35-40 hours per week for a couple of years, nowadays maybe 15-20 hours per week. In B'n'M casinos I try to play everytime I go abroad.
