Playing at night is very nice but it depends a lot on world schedules, in my case in argentina most of the tournaments are late at night. But playing poker has no schedule:D

My preference has always been playing during day times on weekends online, but I definitely prefer playing live at night. going into a casino in the middle of the day just feels a little too degen...

Love to play at night but in my time zone some of the big games I want to play in start in the morning.

There are no hours to play poker, but I prefer to play during the day, especially in the afternoon. But during the week I play at night and weekends during the day.

Hey boys. I prefer to play after work to calm down from a stressed day. Ofc sometimes if you running good in a tournament it's getting very late. But if you get some cash ins it feels not that terrible.. Only after waking up to the next working day tired as hell.. Haha ;) but on day I feel more concentrated. I prefer that.

Some years ago I can play all night, but now after middle of the night I start to get tired and lose concentration. So now I try to began playing as early as can and finish near middle of the night.

First of all, in order to determine the best hours for the rink, you need to look at what time the most people are playing, that is, to determine the peak of traffic.
It's simple here, the more players online, the higher your chances of finding recreational players.
These are people who play poker for fun, they are also called "chips". They are not worried about improving their strategy, and therefore they will drain money at the speed of light. In fact, the entire poker industry is based on their money.
Many people constantly argue about which nationality players are worse at poker and which are better, but I will tell you that good and bad players can be found anywhere in the world. Therefore, to search for bad players, first determine the time with maximum traffic. If you want to play during the maximum traffic, then I would advise you to play in the evening European time. This is the best time to play.
Prime time in America is also not bad, but there will be less games. And avoid prime time in Asia, during these hours the ratio of chips to regs is the lowest.

I usually find I play better while the sun is shining, noon to late afternoon, most Casino's in the World will not have windows, so it is hard to tell what time it is, as they want you to keep on gambling (and losing).
I don't remember who it was, but a top Professional in an interview was asked a similar question about where he prefers to play? In the USA or UK and his immediate response was definitely the USA, when asked why? he said there are more Casino's in the USA therefore more "Fish to fry".
I do not want to offend any American's but what he was actually referring to was the simple fact there are more people living in the USA so obviously more mediocre players around.
Choosing your time when to play can have an advantage,because if it is early in the day where you live, It could be late at night where other players live and therefore may have had a couple of beers, (or more).
So to make the best of that type of advantage, you have to experiment with Time Zones to find the optimum Time to play, for yourself, depending on where you live in the World.
Personally I don't want to spend my time, finding the best time for myself, I just want to have some fun.

When the fun Stops, STOP!

For me, the time when I play is not a question, if I feel good and want to play poker, then I play whenever during the day or night. If I ever get so good that I earn my income with it then I think maybe it will come up with the question of when I play best because I think that is the most important thing with this question of when to play. And how many people then play. But since I'm not that good, the question doesn't arise and I play whenever I feel like it and, to be honest, that's almost always, but recently I've been stepping back a little and I don't try to play so often at night anymore, mainly because I just can't play through the night as well lately and just get tired. But every now and then play at night too

I don't particularly see it as a day or night matter but rather how many people and what type of players are playing. I prefer rush for that matter and go in whenever there are over at least 200 playing (usually daytime). And I have the regs tagged. I see no point to fight with regs at their peak. I do put up a fight with them at (night) times but I play differently and only when there are very few players and mostly regs.. Against the ocean, tag works. Against regs, lag works and sometimes passive as they seem to aggressively donate. Regs I avoid during the day and fight them at night. Daytime is for everyone else.

I have adjusted my playing schedule now so when i am playing a bigger buy in and its a late start - i normally only do that if i have a day off the next day, this helps me relax, play better as im not worrying about getting up and feeling rough for work the next day lol !

On weekdays I play cash at night as my playing time is limited, on weekends I play 1-3$ buy in tournaments and freerolls during the day, and rest at night.

Haha I have done so many times... I'm really trying to tell if I'm ready to play or if I'm too tired. I also sometimes choose to play fast tournaments .

I usually play cards at night, it’s easier to concentrate in the dead of night
