Occasionally I will get in a game that I feel is just too good to leave, I sat playing for 16 hours and ended up up around 5 buyins. However towards the end I felt my game got a lot duller and I wasnt thinking things through. How do you keep focus in long sessions like this and what techniques do yoou use to stay more alert

a persons ability to stay focused on something is quite limited, i remember 40 min or something. thats why they have breaks at schools and workplaces. i dont think its possible to be fully focused on something for that long, its more about how high you can bring your B-game imo. i guess that comes over time when you dont encounter that many decisions any more that requires your full attention.

part of this would be to be in good physical shape. I play alot better right after a long run, or a tough aerobic exersize.

preparation before the marathon session is good. Afterall, you wouldn't see a marathon runner or cyclist eating beer and pizza before the event.
Exercise, preferably a good run on the treadmill or track, is great. Then eat a good meal before hand. There's plenty of material on the net or in books about eating right. |

16 hour sessions are unhealthy in almost all respects. Unless running like god, rest and relaxation improve stamina and thought capacity and keep one from making numerous mistakes due to fatigue.
