Six Max Baby Steps

[soma_]

This post just sent me into an hourlong spiral into the archives, accompanying a mind[censored] regarding my recent 6-max play.

EDIT: So thanks. Really.

Just an FYI for those who don't already know: King Yao's book has a couple of very nice chapters on short-handed play. This is much better and much more practical (especially for us micro guys) than the shorthanded material in HEPAP.

Most of the stuff in Yao is stuff that you guys will already be familiar with (pot odds, free card play, etc.). But the SH stuff may be new. And if you learn only one thing from this book, it will more than justify the price tag.

A similar thesis was also discussed by Ed Miller in his April 2005 article on preflop play in short handed situations.

Anybody know how to get ahold of this? They don't keep the back issues longer than 3 months and I'd really like to read it.

I really liked Ed's article, and I've asked him if he might put it on his website, but I've not gotten a response from him yet. Maybe he's too busy working on his next book.
