I work full time and play a lot of poker during the week and at weekends. Over the last while I've been staying up to when i would normally get out of bed on the weekends. Im wondering if any other people have this rountine and wonder how you cope with it? I think the advice im looking for has more to do with sleep management as I like to stay up late like this. Its great fun:) Trouble is, I need to get everything done during the week I would have normally done at the weekend. Any suggestions?

When i used to work and play poker i would often go through the night - then get up and into work about an hour early and sleep in a toilet cubicle. Used to do this on the lunch break too! Remember to set your phone alarm mind you! And try not to snore!

Not sleep, just a dose really... Rests your eyes, but does enough to get you through the day.

It doesnt work very well and results in poor performance on the tables and at work. Get yourself a schedule and stick to it. If you really cant, you are probably a degenerate like most of us on here and you should work out how to make enough £ to go full-time.

weird thing happened to me this morning.  I could have sworn I logged out of the blonde cardroom last night before I went to bed, but when I got up this morning it was still running and I had more money in there than I remembered having at bed time.  I may have found the answer - playing (and winning) during my sleep!
