- How much would you study? (And would you have a preference within this - books videos etc?)

- How much would you would you review hands?

- How much would you play?

- Do supporting activities (exercise, meditation etc?)

I am always tempted to play a bit too much. But I want to get better.

I realise some of this is a matter of choice, and will change as a player develops, but I'd really be interested in views.

- 100 hours (trick question?)
*preferences would include a slighter higher weight on sweat sessions/discussion and videos

- I would review them all

- In between the time I wasn't studying?

- No, I'm fat.

Thanks. 100 hours was just an easy figure given to %...

I also am fat - but suspect this is not great for poker (or life, although that is dull)

I just wanted to know - we all have a finite time to devote to poker. How best to divide it to make the biggest impact?

Thanks for replying Moxie. That feels about what I aim for - although I probably play more like 70% at the expense of hand reviewing...

At the beginning you should devote more time to improvement than in to playing. As you beat the stake you're at, whatever stake that may be, that should shift into more playing and less studying. However, this will change again as you move up to a higher, more difficult stake again.
