Default when to play online if you are a professional

Hello,

My poker skills have been improving and I want to move into paid cash games.

What is the best time to play (I assume at night), from what time to what time, and what is the best poker site?

Thanks!

any time at PokerStars Full Tilt or AP, lesser known sites seem to be best around early evening , say 4-8 pm EST, as many euro players are still up

in the morning there are less people and less high school kids, that tend to make a lot of stupid moves.

I remember a pro on a Brit forum saying he woke early and played 6am-10am GMT as it was the time to fleece the half drunk/half asleep Yanks.

Conversely,I suppose you could catch the drunk Brits at 7pm-11pm EST.

Weekends obviously the best time...hic.

The best time for you to play would be between 03:00 and 04:00 on party poker at the 0.5/0.10 tables under the name "EZMONY4GTS".. lol. Just kidding.

Play at pokerstars. I should've played at that site but I don't have enough cash to deposit there now. I'm not sure what the time difference is but it's probably best to play at about 5PM to 9PM EST.

Personally I like pokerstars and midweek, early morning (est). I play while having my coffee. I think the players play better poker then so you don't feel like you are dodging a bunch of donks all the time. All the kids are in school and the drunks are sleeping
