How many hands people here play in one year, approximately?

I bet nobody play that much that it takes away variance from their game. ;)

Variance is the only certainty we have.

It's practically impossible to count the number of hands that are played in a year. If it were for tournaments it would be difficult, imagine in a year for those who really like the game and play countless tournaments.

I play an average of 3-4 tables a night. I play 3-4 days a week and probably play about 10 months out of 12. It's hard to calculate how many hands I play in a year, but I think it's quite a lot. Although in general, I have consistently positive results.

I have never counted them . Ofcourse when I used to play zoom for one or two days in a row , I noticed that I played far too many hands , who's is to be expected . But specific number ? I don't know . I am not teg to be interested in such details

Sadly not near enough or consistently enough. So I mostly make an effort to play the bigger yearly MTT series on pokerstars and weekend events. With work being on call 24/7 365 days a year, family and a few other hobbies I could use 30-40 hours days not 24 hour days. But such is life.

Cheers!!!

I play only in tournaments, cash games are unprofitable for me. On average, I play 4-5 days a week, and on average I play in three tournaments a day. It's hard to say how many hands I play, but I think there are at least 1000 hands per day.

I'll have to check, but so far I don't know how many hands I'll play in a year, thousands of hands for sure.

Wow that's alot! You mostly play zoom if i recall right?

These days I am doing 20k hands a month (not inc tourneys), so perhaps I could get to 250k in a year.
