I deal graveyard shift, so I see a lot of play during this time.

Before I got my electric shock collar installed, I'd float a lot instead of working, mostly playing 3/6 and 6/12. I don't really play much live any more, but I've found 4-8am to be one of the most difficult times to profit. They're bad players, for sure, but it's harder to get the huge pots. They're more sober (or at least less drunk) than other times, and the whole "aw, c'mon, throw in some chips!" comraderie you get at other times is mostly gone. It's a bunch of angry, sullen people rapidly becoming more angry and sullen as the buzz wears off and they realize where they are and how much they're stuck. They'll lose it all, for sure, but it a grumpy time doing it. When you stack someone, there won't be anybody else to take his/her place. I've been a lot more comfortable, generated larger pots, and had more fun playing on a weekend morning or a Thursday evening.

I must agree. When I go to Vegas from the east coast, I know I'm going to wake up early no matter what time I go to bed. I've had this theory that I'm gonna make money early in the morning, but it doesn't aways pan out. What I try is to nap until 1 or 2 am and then go down and play from 2 to about 5. This is prime drunk and all-in time. Just remember you will get drawn out on and this is also the time a lot of money leaves the table.
