Default Whats the minimum time that you can play a ring game

For arguments sake lets say you were playing a NL 0.25-0.50 game (what im playing at the moment)

First of all, you pay a blind big blind. After this, whats the minimum amount of time to be able to see any run of bad cards out the way etc and get a good bet in.

ie. if you only had say 10 minutes the chances of you having good cards and having an opportunity to get a good bet in is smaller than if you play say 30 minutes

Not really sure what you're trying to ask but I'd say there's no minimum time. I went through a month not so long ago where I didn't finish down once and I played every night except 3. I then went on a losing run where I didn't get any hands or when I did I was getting bad beats. I lost a lot of money in that run, but that's the game. I was still up overall which is what counts.

I don't think I could play for only 10 minutes, although I do tend to get a good hand the first time I sit down so who knows.
