Just curious as to when everyone plays online the most? Do you guys play during breaks at work or just after work? I have a bit more leeway right now since I'm home full time and can play whenever, but I've noticed some sites are relatively dead during daylight hours.

Depends on where you play. If playing at a site with european players, the evening is the best time. For sites with a lot of american or canadian players it is during the night.

yeah, some rooms like Titan for example have good traffic during noon and afternoon but after 1 am CET the traffic is relatively low until next noon. I'm doing my best game at night and I play mostly at Stars where it's always crowded. Even at 8am greek time I have no problem at all finding the tourney I want

Best time to play online is around 5 AM on New Year's Eve, you catch all the people which are going back from parties, and those people are generally drunk/high/stoned + they play in a fishy way (usually upper stakes than they usualy do) on NYE

I find the best time is on the weekend. Lots of noobies on the weekend looking to try their luck at this poker game, and think bluffing most hands is the way to go. So sweeeeeeeeeeeet, I'm salivating now, bring me a bucket.

Best time in Europe is daytime I think. I dont like new players who call all inn all the time. Cant play a decent hand that way... Because they often win with redicolus cards....

For me it's around 4-8am EET (I'm not usually up at that hour but when I've been I made best profit) and during european afternoons and early evenings. I noticed that's when most fishes play. Of course weekends and holidays are the best.

i usually play on weekends or when i have a day off from work. i usually play long session starting from evening and playing late till night and thats the time for me when most of the sites are having high traffic.

I dont work currently, so i pick and choose alot throughout the day, but i seem to like to play in late evening/early am the most. Its quiet around me and you do get a variety of different players at that time too..never know what to expect!

Like some previous said. Best are always evenings. U just need to count when people have evenings. At Stars/FTP best time = american time evenings , european = ofc european evenings. And sometimes in the morning are still some fishes.Weekend count as extra. In the middle of day there is mostly only grinding regulars for points.

The best time of the week is supposed to be at weekends ( drunk people, playing for fun, beginners, non-professinals ... ) The best time ever is Christmas and you can imagine why ... So ... be ready!

Yes, you can recognize him because he is the donkey who is drunk, chatting all the time, limping all the pots and calling every raise you make. And, of course, he always win, he is Santa!

sundays are the best to play anywhere at anysite and i think most will agree with me tons of donkeys and that is the best time to make up any money lost in previous week
greek time I have no problem at all finding the tourney I want
!but most of time play at night,then I can play in peace and nobody disturb me!
