How long is too long?

I just got done playing tonight for 5 hours. I was only playing one table, so I was able to do other things, but I did net a win, and right now I'm debating whether to play ANOTHER SnG since I'm getting hot cards. I think I'll just go to bed.

I really go down hill at about an hour, therefore, I do short periods of play to keep myself going..

3 or 4 hours for me. i always seem to hit my high at a table around 2 and a half hours. if i'm playing up to 4 hours i start losing badly. dunno if thats just me losing interest and playing badly or my judgement going but i never seem to take big hits in the first few hours.

I think 6- 8 hrs is the max a person should play anything more and you'll be bound to make mistakes.

I log off after 100 hands because that as many hands as Poker Stars can send you via email. So I take a break

Four hours is about the lmit for me, but it's longer when playing live. By the way, does losing or winning make you want to play longer?
