Apparently I shouldn't play between the hours of 4am and 10am CST. I've lost a total $225 during those hours. What's worse is that I have yet to have a winning session at all during those hours. However between the hours of 10am and 12am CST, I'm have gains of ~$550 and loses totaling ~$125. This is thru 7000 hands at Party.
Anyone else have similiar trends based on time of day played?
I know 7000 hands isn't really that much, but just to be on the safe side, I don't think I'll be playing poker anymore before 10am.

Yea, Ive heard those hours are pretty shitty, but at the microstakes at party I dont think the difference is going to be huge. You should still be able to beat those games, albeit for less than you would at peak hours. Try playing from like 10/11pm-2am sometime, the play is absolutely atrocious then.

I just opened a account at party, but i'm from Europe.
CST is North American Central Standard Time, right? That's seven hours difference with CET. So I shouldn't play from 11 am to 5 pm CET, damn that's not good. Also the best hours are from 5 am to 9 am  .
Can someone confirm that living in Europe is EV- ?

I've personally found that I make twice as much at 10NL around 7pm GMT due to all the British and European fish coming home from work, and that I generally make much less in the early hours, due to most of the tables being multitabling nutcampers. Sometimes, at these times, all the fish disappear from the tables, and it's only the multitablers left. Which always makes for a good game, as we're all about equal skill levelled TAGGs.
To the poster above me: Play on a site with a lot of Europeans. iPoker and Ladbrokes have a lot. Friday nights and Saturday nights are perfect (when you're having a night in), because there'll usually be at least 2 drunk people (gnereally brits) on each table. You can do things like make huge all-in riverbets when you get lucky and hit the nuts, tell them that you're bluffing in the chat box, and they believe you. 
It's great fun.

I saw an article on TV recently where a married couple from Luton were making there monthly mortgage payment playing $10 at Paradise from 11 pm EST to around 4 am friday and sturday- This converts to 3 am to 10 am GMT. They argued that this is the best time to go up against the "drunken Americans". The East coast is 4 hours behing the UK and the west coast is 8 therefore a session in where between those time will see you OK.
On Paradise your better off going up against druken americans than druken Europeans simply because there numbers dominate most tables. Ide be intersted to know what EST time other UK players reckon is best.
Cheers
