Thanks so much!! I found this when someone else pointed me to it.

Fantastic post, especially:

People are making adjustments to 6 max play because they are lacking in important concepts from full ring play. That is also why most veterans say playing 1/2 6 max is crucial before moving up to 2/4 and beyond. If you're lacking in one of the "adjustments" you need to make, you are an incomplete poker player, even strictly in terms of full ring play.

This observation really put my misunderstanding of 6-max into perspective. I thought I would be working on new and unknown skills in 6-max but it makes more sense (now) that I'm really working on existing weaknesses in my full ring play. I learn much better knowing the "whys" and not just the "hows" so your explanation helps me.

I don't know why a dozen or so posts like this aren't stickied right along with the FAQ. ml would be better for it...
