Default Peak times, when the hell are they?

I've tried playing through the night here in the UK thinking that the US players would be coming on but it doesn't seem to get busy.

What would people say are the peak times both at weekends and on weekdays. If you post your peak times please let us all know what site you play on and what time zone you are in so we can all figure it out relative to ourselves.

Also if anyone knows of a site that keeps track of players logged on to poker sites that would be superb!

By peak times do you mean when the most players are online or when the games are the softest?

A little from coloumn A and a little from coloumn B. I just think it's worth knowing what sites are busy at what times and when the fish are on there.

As Fools says, UK times it seems to be between 9-12, I would like to extend my playing hours tho so I was really wondering what US times are good to go fishing.

Nice going on the SnG's Fools

I usually get to work at around 6:30am EST and don't start until 7:00. If I get the chance, I like to play for 30mins at a ring game and I find the games to be REALLY REALLY soft at that time.

I think it depends on where you're playing though some sites just don't have a lot of players regardless of the time, they might just not be a high traffic site.

ok, so that's 11:30ish UK time, I wonder why they are soft at that time of the morning. Seems odd but thanks for the info.

For anyone interested in this thread who wants to convert the time zone to their own there is a great tool to do it for you, follow the link...

Anyone else got good times to play?

I have absolutely no idea why but everyday I make about $2-$5 in 30 mins playing on the $0.10 tables (adjust numbers for variance.)

I usually play on Pacific and occasionally Noble. I am thinking of getting a Stars and a Party account too tho.

I'm guessing that the more players there are on a site the more fish there is, obviously this is true but does it work out that way in percentage terms? Are the games easier to beat at peak times or is it strangely at 6 in the morning (like Mr.McJ is finding)?
