Planning a session

Hi guys, i dont know if the subject has been covered here, but if no, it seem interesting to me. Here my couple question about a session.

Session

1- When starting a session, how do you approach it. I mean do you play a restricted numbers of games, no matter of the time took? Or you play 1-2 hours no matter the numbers of games played?

Numbers of games

2- For information,  when u play 1HU at time, how many turbos can u fill up (in average in 1 hour) on full tilt,

                                                                                 How many regulars can u fill up (in average in 1 hour) on full tilt,

                                                                                How many turbos can u fill up (in average in hour) on Stars,

                                                                                How many regulars can u fill up (in average in hour) on Stars.

I know that this is pretty much stakes dependant cause in low stakes players are staking of so light that the game isnt that long.

If somebody want to add something on that subject, lets do it!

P.S Sorry for my english, im pretty much donky in that language

Sessions

As far as time played or a number of games goes, as long as you are +EV against your opponents it will be in your best monetary (money) interest to play as much as possible. However, if you are playing while very tired or very tilted then you might stop being +EV against your opponents because you are not playing as well as usual. In addition, there are other factors in your life besides money, so you probably don't want to spend your entire day playing.
This answer might not help much, but the amount of time or games you are going to play on a daily basis really depends on the goals that you have set for yourself.

Whats your plan

Tx for your answer, i like the +EV thinking stuff (obv).
Im just curious about your plan of your sessions. I know it will be different for everybody, cause the goals of each person is different.
When i was playing cash games a lot, i could spend 5-6 hours a day on 8-9 tables. Personaly, i find it more difficult to play that much hours in HU SNG. Maybe because im new to this game. (Im playing/learning those since 1 month at lower stakes.)
So, i know that plan of everybody is different, but for fun, if anybody want, just tell whats yours.
P.S. I just played 16 turbos (without multitable) on full tilt in 1 hour, pretty sick.

My typical session starts

My typical session starts with me thinking "crap, I need to play 2-3 games today to make iron man." I play those games, then if I get bored enough or feel like I need money I play more. I don't really have any system I follow.

My usual is around 30-50 per

My usual is around 30-50 per day depending how i run. When the beats start getting to me i just go do something else.... almost donked off my whole roll 3 days ago due to going on monkey tilt and playing like a super maniac for the rest of the day.
Trying to climb out of the hole my bad nerves put me it :(( Play from like 8AM untill now non stop (it's 6PM almost now)... couldn't get out of the whole and started playing like shit so i just quit. :(  I guess everyone plays like crap after 10 hours.
