Default Re: Six Max Baby Steps

Okay, small difference of semantics i think.
Calling is good. But being PASSIVE, is not good. Though I am a 6-max newb, finding the medium between passive and agressive is necessary.
Many full ring players (me included) will see a small pocket pair and limp it generally without thinking too much. Generally you aren't making a huge mistake if you limp a small pp in a full ring game. But if you just limp in 6-max, your error is compounded, because of the agressive nature and short handed nature of the game.

Oh and this:

If you open-raise A9o in the CO and the button 3-bets you, the standard WA/WB line is typically correct when you spike an A on the flop for exactly the same reasons as it is for full ring. You still don't want KK to fold, and you still might be behind AK. Play the poker you know how to play.

I totally agree with.
