I am from Europe. Made this fishing experiment. NL2
Or maybe I am not tired as in evenings?

Yesterday went earlier to bed - I was asleep at 9 pm and woke up at 3 am.
So I went to WPT Poker to see how Americans play.

Man, this is beautiful:

European fish are very difficult in comparison...

I also heard that Europeans play aggressive poker on some WSOP/WPT commentary... What are your experiences?

Wow 400 hands.
What a sample.

That aside, I too have a stereotype that American fishes are much tastier fishes than European fishes.

American fish and European fish have slightly different playing styles.
-American fish tend to play very loose passive and are willing to call down with a relativly wide range especially vs players they percieve to be agressive.
-European fish are also loose but tend to more agressive then their American counterparts. They are less likely to limp/call preflop in general and are more likely to shove their busted draws on the river in bad spots.

I personally prefer to play with American fish because its easier to win their money (vBet, vBet, vBet) but it also takes longer sometimes.

Not really a big enough sample... But I do notice myself that the games seem to be a bit more fisher late at night/early morning...

Maybe its because there are more Americans than European entities :)

I used to be a fish but im not now as it costs too much to see additional cards but now I'd rather know i have the nuts before even putting a large bet on against what i would call a fish from the states :)

Maybe they were Mexicans, Brazilians or Canadian. Whoever it was, they were good and today it was also good.
