Re: College Students, how much do you play during school?
I probably played as much when I was in college as I do now as a full time pro.
Maybe that's part of the reason I dropped out of college my junior year to become a pro. Hmmm.... Oh well, best decision I ever made.

Re: College Students, how much do you play during school?
I think Its hard to get more then 20hrs a week.
Especially when most of us miss out on the best games which are on the weekends.

Re: College Students, how much do you play during school?
I'll be lucky to get in 5k hands this month. That being said, I'm a Biochemistry major with two labs, in an undergrad. research program, and volunteer weekly in a hospital, so during the week I play all of...maybe an hour a day.
On weekends my play is little to none, but I go to a big football school so the weekends are all busy. Also, Sunday is my NFL/study day so there's no playing there. I guess it comes down to, Pick Two: 1. Be Studious 2. Have a significant social life 3. Play poker Being at school is -EV [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] (unless I decide to start playing in class).

Re: College Students, how much do you play during school?
Senior at Northwestern, I've hardly played at all this month with moving and seeing people again. My advice to everyone out there is to not let poker get in the way with college, this is a once in a lifetime experience and it'll be over before you know it. Have fun, make friends, and skip class to do stuff other than poker. That said, I'd still like to hit 7-10k hands/ month.

I agree you need a social life. But I treat every day of online poker like it could be the last. Its the best opportuinity I have ever had. How many people come out of school not only debt free, but with a downpayment on their first house?

I aim to play 1-2 hours a day, probably 10-15 hours a week. It allows me to balance my school work and social life along with playing poker. Let's not forget nap time, guys. Napping is crucial to college success. (Unless you go to bed at a decent hour, which is nearly unheard of around me). - thing85 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
