the best to play poker is Friday, Saturday and Sunday because then there are the most players in tournaments and there are more paid places. In this way, the chances are good to recover the investment and in one day to earn something more.

exactly, weekends are probably the best to play, because then everyone has more time and there are more players plus a lot of players with lower skills, more beginners and recreational players, also weekends should theoretically be the easiest to play and there are the best chances for nice wins....

Weekend is the best time to play poker in every poker room , and PartyPoker is not an exception to this rule . Then guarantees are bigger in some tourneys , traffic might be better . But mostly it depends on the games that you play and you have profits at

I see Bwin freerolls that run 24/7 , now they have better payout . In the past the early Freerolls awarded only top 3 players , very difficult to be ITM , now they reward for more . The same applies for the other freerolls. They rewarded 10 or 20 places , now far more . I do not know if they are also offered at PartyPoker as it shares the same lobby with Bwin , although in the past I witnessed differences between them when it came to offered freerolls . they are a good reason to start playing on this poker room to earn sth extra . It's 24/7 , so this is one more reason to play anytime on Bwin .

Most of players have free time on weekend when there are bigger tournaments, but also more players on tables! If somebody play cash games, then its not big difference, there are always lot of players! Just depend what somebody like to play! Every day is good when you earn money on tables!

I have to agree that best day to play is on the weekends. There are way more weak players since its the rest days from their regular work and they have time to enjoy some games.

I also think that bwin is the best place to play poker!!! You can enter for free every hour, where it is true that you can win tournament money, but you have to bet with it 1 time and it will become real money!!! And on weekends, there is a bankroll freeroll with a prize base of $50 and additionally for Hungarian players every day I can compete for a free prize pool of $250 where I can win real money!!!

Precisely on weekends, probably best because a lot of recreational players. Not who have free time play weekends for fun. And most tournaments are on weekends, the biggest field and the biggest pots. It also depends on which poker room and from which countries there are the most players. Because sometimes it pays to play at night if there are a lot of players from other time zones than Europe.

I see that most people say that it's best to play on the weekend because there are a lot of players with little experience and those who play only recreationally. Are there any tournaments played during the week at all? But is it usually/always Friday, Saturday or Sunday?

There are also many tournaments during the week. Depending on the poker room and traffic. The biggest tournaments are on weekends because that's when people have the most time to play plus recreational players come in. Then there are the most and the largest pots. Now it's still not the same as it used to be in the golden days. Poker stars has been played by many people from different countries compared to what it is now. All because of government restrictions and stupid regulations.

the best tournaments are on weekends, so players should play satellites in the first few days, to try to qualify for better tournaments. This is the most appropriate method, where the investment is much lower than buying directly.
