Poker Playing Calendar
If you're a typical hold 'em player, you probably have a job, a family, and a home to take care of. You're not free to go play poker for hours on end any time the mood strikes you. You have to budget your time. You have to plan ahead so that you can get the most value and pleasure from your poker playing time. That's how this chapter will help you.
If you play in a regularly scheduled poker game at a friend's home, there's not much you can do about changing the day or the time the game starts. If you're not there for the game, you don't get to play. If you play in a casino poker room, however, or if you're lucky enough to have a choice of more than one poker room to visit, then you have some decisions to make.
Every hour you spend in a hold 'em game is not necessarily equal to every other hour you play. In poker, as in most aspects of life, one day of the week is not the same as every other day of the week. A poker game changes over time. It is like a living, breathing organism that evolves into something else every time a player leaves the game or a new player is seated. You can predict in advance which times are better than others if you know which factors to consider. Let's look at a list of those now:
1. What day of the week is it? Most people have already realized the importance of this question. Everybody knows that Saturday is always better than Tuesday, just because the majority of people who have jobs usually work Monday through Friday.
2. Is Monday a holiday? When Monday is a holiday, the games are just as good on Monday as they are on Saturday and Sunday.
3. Is it Monday evening? If it's Monday night during football season, the poker room usually has giveaways and specials for the poker players. You might get to enter a free football pool or have a shot at extra money added to the jackpot.
4. What day of the month is it?The 15th and the 30th or 31st are Federal Government paydays, and Social Security recipients get their checks on the last day of the month. If that's a Monday, then the previous Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are what's known as "hot-check days," because everyone can write a check and know it will be good by the time it makes it to the bank on Monday or later.
