Default Find the online games are much tougher late at night

Usually games are supposed to be easier late at night EDT and tougher in the morning. I find the reverse is true and $200NL is very sodt in the morning and very tought late at night. At least my style of play gets crushed late at night.

I find the opposite to be true, at least at 100NL.

I find more Drunks are on at night and therefore more times you see hands which nits fold.

Is this possibly somewhat site dependant?

25NL on Stars in the morning (ET, US) is loaded with loose gamblers from Germany and the Netherlands. Most of these guys have LAA numbers and a lot of them are ATM's.

I find that by 5-6 pm ET the games are considerably harder to beat for a good rate; most of my gain comes from small pots here. It gets better late, but I play very little late at night anymore (early riser).

Then there's Saturday. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

(only ~11K hands of NL for me so far)

I love the smell of Full Tilt in the morning!

I tend to find that games during the afternoon (eastern time) are easily beatable but not for a high rate of return. This is because they are generally very passive and tight, so not a lot of big pots are played without the nuts. I experience a lot more variance playing on Friday/Saturday nights but is more profitable on net.

I can usually beat the game through aggression, but this doesn't work late at night. My loose reraises get 4-bet. When I try to float, people follow up with big turn bets. If I raise a bunch of limpers, I get called and raised on the flop.
