5. Is it Friday? Besides being the last day of the traditional workweek, Fridays are good for poker players because a lot of people get their paychecks on Friday.

6. What time of day is it? Games played during the mornings and afternoons tend to be full of older, more conservative players, who have a lot of playing experience. The pots at those times will be smaller than average, and you won't get paid off as well on your winning hands. Evening and late night players tend to be younger and a little looser, so there's a lot more action in those games. Your opponents at those times will be making more mistakes when they play against you.

7. How big is the jackpot? Is it double or triple jackpot night? If the jackpot is unusually large, then it might be worth your time to play, even if it's a time when you wouldn't ordinarily go. Some cardrooms double or even triple the jackpot (up to a certain amount) on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays in an effort to increase business.

8. Is it tournament night? Originally, one of the main purposes of tournaments was to draw players to the cardroom, so they would fill the ring games as they were eliminated from the tournament. It still works. That's why there are more tournaments on a poker room's slow days than there are on the busy days.

9. Personal obligations. There's an old joke with the punch line: "On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, when I attend my Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, we play poker. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, when I attend my Gamblers Anonymous meetings, we sit around and drink." Whatever your personal obligations are during the week, don't forget them. Take them into consideration when deciding when to play.
