My longest was an unremarkable 26 hours of 1/2 NL. Noteworthy, though, is the time I showed up to find a friend up 6.5 buyins in a capped NL game. He told me he'd been at the casino about 7 hours. I played a few hours, got bored, went home and slept, played some soccer the next day, then showed back up at the casino about 18 hours later. My friend was in the same seat, now up 14 buyins. He left the same time as me, 10 hours after that.

9 1/2. I'd intended to leave earlier but the craziest maniac I've ever seen sat down and ran 1/2 rack up to about 7 racks back down to 3 racks before he left.

wow, and I thought 18 hours was nuts. I completely agree though with what was mentioned above, driving home is brutal after a long sesssion. I once had to pull over at one of the rest areas on the garden state and take a nap, buddy that i went with had passed out already.

I guess some people can't wait till they get to the est area, hence, all those cars lined up on the right side shoulder right after the tolls on teh garden state.

Hmm, I'm not even close. I did play blackjack all day (starting 9 a.m.) during my last vegas trip, (was playing with wife and brothers in law), got up $250 and said "I'm heading to the orleans open hi lo tourney", went over played, finished 15 out of the money, came back and they hadn't moved (this was about 11 p.m.), and we all played until 4:30, exept for comped food break. I love my wife [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I used to work nites and drive a 90 minute commute home at like 2 a.m., and totally agree with what was said ealier: don't drive super tired. Used to pull over all the time and cat nap when tired. Driving really, really, tired is more dangerous than driving a little bit drunk, IMHO.

And people don't understand why I don't want to take the company bus trip to AC that arrives at 8 PM and leaves at 2 AM. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
