Default How much time do you spend playing online poker?

So, we're all poker fanatics. I'm curious how much time a typical poker fan spends playing poker online. Take the poll; results should be interesting.

I don't think you're going to be the only one. Maybe we can get a quantity discount.

Right now, I only play 11-14 hours per week. However, if you had asked me that question a year ago, I would have asked for a new category: Poker Evangelist. Back then, I was playing about 30 hours per week, but I also had the time (though not the money.) It should be noted that most of those hours were freerolls or play money tourneys.

I think 14 hours a week is kind of little. I play 14 hours only in weekend. And another 14 -15 the rest of the week.

I usually play from around 7PM until 11PM most days of the week. I am retired and this is my current hobby. I make about $1 an hour from poker and another $1 from my government pension so take it easy on me. I gotta eat.

Smile How many hours I play

I usually play in the evenings. My Hubby leaves for work, I get through with my soaps, then go online check my Freeroll Tourney Calender and head for the pokerrooms. This might change now though because I have a new grandbaby. She was born yesterday. Of course, she is beautiful!

The family fortune is safe with me because I play freeroll. The only money I spend online is the money I win in the tourneys.

Me too, Yankee. I found out the hard way how fast you can go through $50 when I first started playing with real money online. So now, if I have no winnings, too bad for me. (although the withdrawal is brutal!)
