I mean a 4/8 table with 3 or less people seeing a lot of flops is going to be unbeatable. Hope that made sense.

You should never have “expectations” about winning in an individual session anyway, so I guess it doesn’t really make sense. I think it comes down to two things. First, if your room spreads multiple games at the same limit regularly and you know the players pretty well - then sure table change if you think one game is markedly better. Second, but if your room only spreads one game on average at your limit and you have flexibility as to you when you play, then sure try to play at times when the game is likely to be better.
Incidentally, I’ve found this notion that games are much better on weekends to be totally false in the room where I play the most. Weekday days is by far the best in my regular game.
Also, I think that you would be much better off spending less time on table selection and more time understanding the tendencies of the regulars where you play. At my room the player pool is filled with a remarkable large amount of regs with pretty big leaks and getting to know / exploit them is going to have a
much much greater impact on your win rate over time then game selection.
