Some hours, their are more "bad player" than others. Like at peak hours, there are generally more "bad players" and at the low player hours, generally you find the "grinders".
You can check player counts at poker rooms at pokerscout.com

I noticed the players around midnight are much more loose. I checked my stats and yes around midnight they are very good So yes i think late people are more tired even drunk That pays off

Yes i think it can pay better, but you must except that you have a bigger chance of a bad beat, for me the most profitabull part of the day is early morning, lots of ppl on the tables but they dont want to play just grinding out so a few raises puts me to a +.

Ofcourse the more players that are online the more losers are online and you can table select untill you get sore eyes . When this is depends on which site your playing at, US or EU.

Yeah it's a big difference, really.
In the evening, there are a lot of players back from school/work and of course players that know it's better to play that time. In the mid of the night, some people are getting a little tilty and some are just too tired to play.
In the mornings you get $2000 payoff when people call with 2p in a AAQ82 board. Haha! However, if you want to earn money, play when there are a lot of people connected.

Nowadays i allways close the day with a late session (midnight or later). Cos many of these sessions end up in profit so after that its a good feeling going to sleep Zzzz.z...zZ.zzzZ...zzzzz/z/zzz/zzzz.zz..zz.z
