i playing in a short handed game. One of the guys is taking a walk so we are down to 9 players. Some of the guys are getting fed up with the other guy being gone for so long because we hate to play short.

UTG is a nice fellow his name is George he is a computer programmer and he's a couple years old than I am. He used to work in Nutely and built us a computer back when 486 intel was used.

UTG + 1 is Alex. George's brother. He owns a wood carving company now and he does well. He's looking to get married in the fall.

Next is MILANO. WE call him Terry Ann or Terry because he used to look like a bird back in high school. Nice guy he used to work for an Insurance company and is now thinking of buying a business in Nutley, Glen Ridge area.

After him is Fran. Fran is very funny he tells jokes and makes funny noises with his mouth. He drives an Acura and loves the ladies.

The rest of the crew is all mutal friends and now I'm on the button.

My good friend Shawn is in the SB he plays with us regularly and owns his own computer business. He's a cut throat salesman and he's a damn fine card player. He's won a few tournaments in South Jersey and he multi tables on the internet.

in the BB is Miller he just lost his dipper spitter and is now looking for a Snapple bottle so he can spit in his dip.
and he's the one holding up the game.

My question is this.

NOw that the game has become short, what type of adjustments would you make for a short handed game. Would you tend to play much more agressive in certain spots with hands like KJ or TQ or would you still stick to premium starting cards? A few of us at this table discussed this while Miller was (walking) and I was just wondering what you guys would say.

So what type of adjustments would you make in a short handed game?
