I play cash games only and I do best when I play between 4 and 5 hours. If the game is really good I'll stay until I feel tired or that I'm playing poorly. I rarely play more than 9 or 10 hours-VERY rarely.

I bring protein bars and a couple bananas and sometimes yogurt. I drink more water than probably the next 10 people combined and I get up at least once an hour to stretch.

Also I'm trying a new experiment and not wearing a watch. I used to check that out CONSTANTLY and I'd think to myself, "I planned to play 6 hours today and it's only been 3! Ugh it's going to be a long day..." This week I haven't wore one and it helped me focus more on the game and more on my play instead of "having" to get in a certain number of hours.
