Does anyone know what day of the week is generally the busiest / has the highest traffic on internet poker sites? I looked at www.pokerscout.com and unless I'm an idiot it looks like they show traffic reports for specific sites, what it was like over the last 24 hr period, and what the 7 day average is -- but not which days of the week have high volume.

Mostly I'm just curious ... but I'm also thinking high traffic times might be the most profitable times. (You know, the bigger the pool, the more fish swimming around. ) But maybe I'm wrong. I'll bet weekend nights are good because people are more likely to be tipsy, coming home after a night out, etc? But maybe the good players know this so are also playing a lot too. Not sure. Any theories?)

(p.s. I should add that I'm talking about U.S. timezones more or less ... but maybe it's a false assumption to think there are more U.S. players out there than from the rest of the world? I don't know. Enlighten me.)

I always find Friday/ Saturday Evening (PT-ET) is the best time to play, as there are alot more recreational players on then, and alot more looser fish.
