I ve heard some players saying that poker is like coffee in the morning for them.Other players like me prefer night session playing under the cover of darkness.

Which person are you and what are your strenghts playing at each time?

I normally been playing when I'm awake and ready to go.. so usually beginning in mid afternoon. I have never played early (morning, early afternoon) before.. Maybe I can give it a try but then again I'm not usually fully awake in the morning.

Hi Ac3 Meister :) For me, best time to play, is early in the morning when I'm fresh from sleep. My brain is not tired/filled with all the things that happened during the day :) Also, rested from poker play and thinking :)
So, two big reasons that I play in the morning: Fresh and rested brain and least amount of distractions.
And as bee gees posted. There is a whole thread dedicated to this question with some very amusing and some very useful answers.

at night it is better because there is no distraction when you play well without any hassle you think best to make a play or making decisions.

I like to play during the night because no one will interrupt me then. Also I am a night owl and I enjoy the silence. :)

Whenever you feel you're the most rational, playing too emotional will have you losing money quickly.

Given my professional schedule, I am in a better mood for poker at night.

Super juicy time is 5am - 9am when you can take advantage of all the people who have been playing overnight.
Worst time i think is 9am - 5pm. Mostly props and SSN check grinding nits
And the GOLDEN time to play is the Friday/Saturday night immediately following the 1st and 15th of the month.

for me the 1st choice is 7:00 PM
my inner clock shows it is the best time for brainstorm.

will keep my A game that time.
since not hard to find fish player, A game time is very important for me to keep the edge.

Its all about how energized I am. Actually today I woke up early to play some tourneys and felt really lethargic, I dont think I'll be doing that anymore.
