obviously it depends on the cards but anywhere between 10 and 30 minutes
if i win a good pot near the start i can relax a little and play my game a bit better knowing that if i lose/fold or whatever im still up on my session
once youve been at a table with other players you can usually get a feel for their style of play and pick up the odd extra pot here and there (well at the lowish limits anyways).
