i also live on the east coast and the night is better poker i think. during the day u have to remember that all the grinders are playing and during the night probably at least a quater of the players are just recreational players. so the easiest money i would say is from 12-6am.

If you like to play freeroll early in the morning is the best hour because don't have more that 15K players at the most poker online game

Best time for me, is when the americans are sleeping, lol. At that time, i earn the most of my money.

I haven't been able to play during the day lately, especially in the morning, but when I was able to, I did very well. Now I play from about 6 pm to midnight and it is tougher.

low limits best times are probably 1-5 pm est (catch sleepy/drunk euros and high schoolers /college kids from us 3-5)
and then 8 pm -1 am

usually just go by the amount of people on line - more is better

Doesnt matter imo.
The weekends are softer then weekdays but i havent seen a certain time where the game is softer.
Thing of it this way, Its allways night or morning some where on the planet.

I'm east coast- I love 11pm and later on a Friday or saturday night.

You catch the guys/gals coming home a wee bit hammered or jut having fun.

I am not sure what variable dynamics come into play, but I agree that late night to the wee hours seems to always provide looser play.

Now, if I could just stay up to take advantage...

During the day est. at sng's there are a few of the same players. New players come in for 1 or 2 days and most move on.

This seems like the best approach. What would you say is high numbers on Stars? 100k? 75?

I like Sunday mornings and weekday afternoons, lot of late night europeans, I think. (I'm in US cst.)

Best Time to Play

I'm from the Uk, and i tend to find that the best tiem to play for me is from around 10:30pm. This is due to the small amount of runners in tourneys, and players seem to be generally tired from a long day of playing, and therefore tend to slip up more

For me, playin at 6-10pm Eastern is great, and also playin 1AM to 5AM is great, as a lot of people are just throwin away money but make sure you're not tired, as you become one of those people.

If I am on top of my game, and of late I have not been, and have some serious discipline. 11pm to 3 am Friday and Saturday nights, I can usually make a few bucks off the drunks that think they are Pros

My favorite time is when I have a morning off.
Can wake up rested, couple cups o' java, and start playing around 8am ...
against a bunch of tired, hopefully drunken Americans.
That's 2am EST!

Whenever the most eurodonks are on. :) Also evenings (US time) on weekends you get a lot of casual players that are poor and will spew to you.

I play in the mornings aussie time, making that evening for Americans and canadains, as there is less donks, not as many kids playing using fake ages to get online,,,
I find the more around 11am-5pm American EST time there is more play where people just dont care on tables and tours but donks love it, sit there and go all in all in all in,,, gets teadious, but not all the time,, but either American weee hrs on the am, or later in the PM

Yeah, on big sites its not too much different in the level of play depending on the time....

but weekends for sure are more fishy, saturday and sunday are by far the best days to play poker.

in my experience it has always seemed the more skilled players will be on after 11pm eastern and probably till the azz crack of dizzawn the following morning up until about 10am or so. after that?....well....thats when the ones in which we do not speak wake up.
