I have found over a small sample of sit and go's that the day time (eastern) the games have way less maniacs/dead money than the late night games.
The disparity seems much greater than the difference from day to night ring games. Anyone have much data on time of day results? |

Hiya rusty,
I've thought about this too, as I can set my own schedule to some degree. So far I haven't reached any conclusions, though. The late evening (around 10pm-1am EST) have been good for me, but I've also had some success in the mid-afternoon (around 2-5pm EST). For some reason, from 5-10pm I seem to run into a lot of hyper aggressive players, but that's a very tiny sample size because I'm usually cooking dinner and spending family time then, rather than playing.

I have always found from 2-5 est time and early in the morning from about 9-11. Other than those two times the games are usually not too tough.

The few times I've played during the day, I've noticed a very large variation in my results. I struggle to break even during the day. My results in the evenings are much stronger (about 70% ROI since I started keeping track about 50 tournies ago.) I think the poker "market" is about as hot as it will ever be. Buy up while the getting's good. I can't imagine this is sustainable. eastbay |

you say it's not sustainable with another season of WPT on the horizon??
the gettin' is pretty good now.....and it's about to get better. i haven't been losing too many SNG's where i feel i am getting outplayed...just the occasional bad-beat. board, 78T me, KK him, AJ i showed strength with a re-raise pre-flop that he called....and then showed strength again with a strong bet on the flop. he calls my all-in and turns the straight. i see idiotic plays all the time in SNG's. and they are spreading to UB and Stars as best as i can tell...although i am still a party-player for the most part. sometimes there are some good SNG's to be had around 1-5 a.m. EST. i suspect there are a handful of players who are playing just 1 more SNG before they hit beddie-bye....and consequently are a bit more impatient making them more likely to lay it on the line with a suspect all-in call in the early going. i call them the 'oh-well-off-to-bed' gang because i see these type of phrase frequently by some of the players who bust out early in late-night SNG's. |

So that's why it's hard. My playing in the evening UK time is the afternoon Eastern time. So you mean I'm going to have to get up and play 3am-7am GMT [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
So decision is more profit & divorce or less profit and tolerance - mmmmmmm In all seriousness, I think when u play late evening in any time zone you'll get a few who are "two sheets to the wind" and so nudge up your expectation (having played a few times myself when I was three sheets and lost much more heavily!!)

Play in the morning GMT - 9am is good. You get the really tired and drunk americans.
Fridays are always good. Saturdays are harder than Sundays. just my not very scientific results... Tim |
