Default When do people end their sessions

The question is fairly straightforward, when do you decide to call it quits for the session? I would think a list would include reasons like:

1.) Reached goal of xxxx hands or x hours.
2.) Tags everywhere on all your tables, aka games suck.
3.) Stop loss of x buyins reached.
4.) Up x buyins, no longer want to play.
5.) Large swings.
6.) Boredom.
7.) (insert reason here)

I'm sure there are more so feel free to add on.

Default Re: When do people end their sessions

usually when boredom sets in, or I make a bad mistake (or too many small ones), or when I'm down a few buyins.

I also quit alot after I get in to a marginal spot in a big pot, because I feel the need to pull up the hand and analyze it/ask friends opinions etc.

needless to say, I don't end up getting many hands in each month [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img].

2,6, but I always set a length that I generally play around (unless the games get bad or a bet bored). Also if I feel I have made a few mistakes, or start to physically get warm (generally after a bad call or tilt starts to set in) that's a good indicator for me to call it quits
