This has always intrigued me, are we a bunch of sad looser types in a dark room for hours on end, do we have a dedicated 'poker hole' where we play or do we just log on when we fancy it?
I do have strange vision of the multi table regs with a wall of screens and 10's of tables open; stroking a cat, Dangermouse styley, lol.
Seriously thou does having a set room/ routine so a balance; improve our results or doesn't it matter?
So fire away guys, what you play, your set up, your routine etc etc.
I'll start, i play mtts and have a strict brm, i only play £11 or less buyins and as break even player, happy with that. If i'm at work i generally play 1 table, the pc there's terrible and will explode with more lol. I will look at my day and normally play 1 in the morning at my desk either the 945 or 1045 bh and 1 in the afternoon at the mo Mikes 2.20 at 2.20. If there still running when i finishd i log off and pick up when home.
If i work in the evening i might try to sat into main which doesn't happen, usually lol if thats a no goer i will normally not bother.
When im off work and not busy i will try to play as much as i can, i don't have a fancy pc or anything, just brought an second hand IBM i5 10inch netbook with 6Gb Ram and i find it easy playing 4/5 tables full screen with enabled large chat box. I will generally log on see whos around and then start playing if i have stuff to do around the house/ garden the netbook comes with, this is great as it totally mobile and with a 6hour battery I am not tied down.
In the evening i generally get collared by the missus:( so only play when not seeing her or after work, then i always try and play the 2030 to 2330 bhs which are £11 or £5.75, do get tempted by £22 one, but haven't yet. I will play these normally sitting in the longue watching TV so totally relaxed and probably unfocused. Late at night i will lie in bed and play with netbook on one of them tray thingys.
Pretty simple really
Over to you lot.

Used to just play tournaments, always trying to sat into bigger ones but now I'm trying to grind my way up the levels at cash,starting at 4NL.
Play on my sofa with my laptop, watching whatever the missus wants on the telly......unless footy is on and then I remind her that it's my telly!
Only play evenings & weekends
Currently play using a Tower which is set-up is in the living room as my "man cave" has been overrun by my daughter moving back home and the garage is a bit chilly in the winter. My other half gets to see more of me now though (Even if it is only the back of my head)
I usually annoy her during the Sync Breaks by asking her questions about the program she is currently watching
Hoping to get a decent lappy as well soon, so I can sit on the sofa and she will see a different side to me (The right side instead of back of head)
BTW Jon I'm intrigued as to what sort of job allows you play poker while at work. Hope it's not the public sector!
