At a full table the players preflop edge is very big, so play becomes more player dependent and this more demanding and fun

- Aba20 (my wording from memory)

It is one game whether you play short of full, shorthanded players have a tendency to get easily bored at full tables as there is less room to operate on.

But you are right, the book should be on NL hold'em not NL hold'em with six players seated or something like that.

Still I like Matt and Sunny to have a shorthanded focus as I feel Sklanky has the market cornered on limping say 77 in mp and checking three streets to extract after flopping top set advice.
