Re: Game trends / time of day
Sure, 8 PM EST-2:30 AM EST is typically the softest the games will be, since the most amount of players (IE Drunk players) are on the tables.
This is true on Fridays x3.

[/ QUOTE ] Over my winter break, I pretty much played poker full time. Games during the day were much tougher than the ones I played at night. I would generally play all night, sometimes up until 7 or 8 in the morning (CDT), but during the day, the players were much better. I would say the difference has more to do with better players than people being drunk (tho that might account for something). The difference was just too great.

[/ QUOTE ] As a UK player, this means that I have never played at the juciest times! No wonder the 3/6 games seem tight. Does this mean that UK pros should aim to play between 01:00 and 07:30 GMT?

[/ QUOTE ] This is what I've always thought too. During the recent US Poker Championship on ESPN I saw John Dagostino say he gets up at 3am and plays til mid morning, sleeps awhile then plays during the hours above. I haven't played much during these early morning times, anyone have any experience then?

[/ QUOTE ] This is also the time that the vast majority of professional multitablers play. I've found some really good games between 11 AM and 3 PM Pacific time. The total number of seats being filled isn't is high as during primetime, but a lot of that has to do with the lack of multitablers.
