The Well: ama0330

I've always played FR, just switched to 6 max- played 12k hands won about 12BB/100, so I'm off to 25NL- what's the single biggest difference and where should I focus my efforts now?

Assuming you have no reads on villain, do you always try to get it all-in pf with AK? Are you always 3betting with it? Calling a shove? Shoving as a 4bet?

I very rarely get it in PF with AK because it performs so poorly against most villain's calling range. You are basically behind 90% of the hands which are going to call your push. I may call a shove with it if I have been hammering someone during a session, or if they are a moran.

I will always 3bet AK for value or to isolate, but may just call a 3bet preflop instead of 4betting.

Aggression and table dynamics. 6max is far more aggressive than FR, and you play a lot more hands. You should focus on learning how to be aggressive and how to respond to aggression.

1) Probably not, I dont think I could deal with the swings and I would like to have a more steady and variance free income. Though I will always play as a hobby and if I get decent enough I hope to make some nice pocket money!

2) I dont coach tho I have been thinking about it. I dont have the time right now but watch this space.
