Best time to play poker?

It will depend where do you live. if is USA or Europe, but since there is around 6 hours difference 1 am in America will be already 7 am in Europe, If they have been playing late I will say form 7 am to 10 am, this will correspond with 1 am to 5 am in the American continent. That is why they dont have any freerolls, or promos at that time but you may find cash games, not sure.

for me early mornings

I would say the evenings are better. Early in the day I would guess there is a higher ratio of pro grinders, which would make it harder opponents in general at that time. I mean in Est.

Mornings

Well I'm a family man so evenings become hard cause I can have kids that end up pestering me along with my wife typically being a distraction as well. So for me mornings work best right after I drop my kids off at school, and I love playing then cause its so peaceful that I can concentrate way better.

I think playing poker with distractions is dumb as your dealing with money way more directly than with other games. If I cant play with full focus I usually wont play at all as I tend to regret it anyways just not worth it!

Anytime is really a good time. Preferably when there is a national event on tv or the weather is super nice when people would want to scurry outdoors for some fresh air.

play whenever you feel fresh. take proper rest and play your real game.

When i play online its either early morning or late night thats when the wife and kid are not home/sleeping so its quite. When i play live its late afternoon or at night at a poker club near by

Morning freerols - 40% less players.

It's definitely better at certain times of day. If it's the evening for a country all the part timer, play for fun people are online.

I prefer I play in the morning, then I think that plays a lot of weak players, but I'm too weak player. In the evening, I am very wrong.

 

[Helvec]

for me the best time to play is poker night.

 

[ovsleka]

I like it night better because you have less distractions-I can concentrate way better.

 

[scr888]

at night look better cards!

Most North American and South American players don't play during the GMT timezone morning because it is very early in the morning for us. 8am to 3pm is 4am to 11am EST. The EST timezone is one of the most populated time zones, so maybe that's why your struggling because there are more players on during the evening hours of GMT as there are in the morning.

Everyone welcome and wish you a spring mood and pobed.Na this time poker lesson takes me about 10 hours captures per day was associated with 10-year anniversary on PokerStars ... but I am disappointed, and invested time and money, but as a result of zero bonkrol-will have to settle down and start again.

Depends if you want to win more money or have a better chance at winning. I find more money at night but have midnight not so many players are playing and you have a better odds of winning

In my short online poker history I have started to notice some trends regarding the time of day I am playing. In the morning hours, say 8am till around 3pm, I do very well and rarely ever leave a table down. Then in the evening hours; 2pm-ish until after 7pm, sometimes even until 10pm, I just get murdered. My straights all get busted, nut flushes fall to boats and just about every sort in between like my kicker is smaller. Then after mid-night things seem to reset and my flushes and straights are crushing pairs and such until I have to quit to sleep. Repeat. My time zone is GMT +/- 5:00
Any thoughts/comments on why (Besides it having to do with the players online at those times) or similar experiences to share?

you need to see how many are online to create you own schedule. I prefer when have minus people

 

[SteaknEggz]

i never play poker in the early or middle part of the day. I dont know if its bad luck or skilled players playing then but i can never win then. The evening is the only time ill play.

 

[Brawo]

Honest? NO, I am not. I don;t know what do you want to hear exactly, but I have a lot to learn. Sometimes I make so stupid thinks. For example yesterday I slow play set AA, horrible.

 

[makrarom]

I would guess that the best time to play, is when the least amount of people are online? Because then you have least amount of people to face? Just a guess
