I much prefer weekdays, because on weekends I prefer to go out and have fun.

I play all the time when there are freerolls. But I think it is better on weekdays and from the very morning when people are at work)

I prefer the weekdays, poker is my job and on the weekends I take a break from interacting with my people and my family because I live alone.5️⃣

and you manage to make a living playing poker?

Are cash games not pretty much the same thing from game to game? What makes them better on the weekend?

There is a HUGE difference!
Friday night (UK time) is the best by far! (19:00 GMT to 23:30 GMT) Paycheques are in, deposits have been made to the poker sites, the alcohol is flowing and there's a bunch of Phil Ivey wannabees hitting the tables hard, lol.
Saturdays are still good (but not quite as good imo)
Sundays are good... but it's definitely Friday > Saturday > Sunday

Mon. > Thurs. you're playing vs. all of the regs.,.. even in the micros

It depends on what you want, if you want to be a professional you can't only play on weekends now if you want poker how do you spend time then weekends are better because they generally pay more on some sites

I don't have a preference. Both periods are good. If you have more time on the weekend, this time should be dedicated to your family. Time is less on weekdays but I can set aside a little for Poker

At the moment, I only play freerolls from card chat on weekdays, and on weekends I already play tournaments for paid entry, as they are very good tournaments

I agree weekends are better but mid week evenings are still OK normally. Mid week during the day (UK time) is usually pretty bad though!

I usually play in my free time during the week and some big tournaments on the weekend.

Nintendo · Nov 22, 2023

it seems like some of the bigger games are on weekends. but I just play when I have free time

MF.Brn · Nov 23, 2023

I like to play during the week, on the weekend I like to do something different, especially with my family.

Flower2211 · Nov 23, 2023

It’s better for me to play poker on weekends, on days off from work.

Playing on weekends or being set up too

Artbart805 · Nov 23, 2023

Cash.. weekends... more vacationer, none experienced players

Tournaments... when you well rested.. .

I prefer weekends to play, this also applies to the platinum level game Cardschat, as well as freerolls to qualify for the Sunday Million. More choice of games and more prizes than on regular days

Wega85 · Nov 23, 2023

any time i am free. dont play for that long. if i loose then i stop playing

I like it better on weekends. There are more recreational players and I have a better chance of winning.

s0ftdumps · Jan 4, 2024

Is their a time when the largest region of players should be going to bed? maybe that's the best time to play!

burba · Jan 4, 2024

For the freerolls I'm playing I've not seen much difference between weekends or weekdays.

Nathan Williams · Jan 4, 2024

Play every day if possible. But there are definitely way softer games on weekends. This is when the recreational players play the most, because they are off from work. This is also when a lot of the biggest tournaments run.

burba · Jan 6, 2024

Yesterdays CardsChat $100 Bronze Freeroll took about 6 hours.
Is this an average duration?
It is much too long for me to play it, if the next day is a working day....

fernandovr · Jan 6, 2024

Playing poker is good any day, unfortunately I can only play on the weekend.

thunderstormsud · Jan 6, 2024

weekends, then there are the biggest MTT

UngureanuDan · Jan 6, 2024

For me personaly is weekends, just because there are more freerolls, hehe, i try to up my bankroll.

TulasMoreno · Jan 6, 2024

Weekends are way better dude, no doubt, better guaranteed, the best players never miss a sunday.

rufininha14 · Jan 6, 2024

I wish I had more time during the week, but I can usually play more on the weekends

alibaba194 · Jun 17, 2025

There are definitely more games and softer players on the weekends, but I just play whenever I feel like it.
