LC - Why don\'t you play 6 max ?
So far I have only played full-ring cash games online (about 25000 hands) and my reasons for playing it is that this is what is played in casinos and I would eventually like to play live games so I see this as a training period. I also prefer to play a TAG game and my opinion is that 6-max is more suited to a LAG player.
However, everyone else I know who plays cash games plays 6-max and their main reason for doing this is that they say 6-max is more profitable for a winning player because they will be playing more hands vs the losing players.. What do you think? Do you agree ? Why do you play full-ring ? Why don't you play 6-max ? |

They are right. 6-max is more profitable. There is also more variance. If you like fr, then play fr.

I played 6-max for most of the first 1/2 of this year. The variance is gross. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Re: LC - Why don\'t you play 6 max ?
Yea,
I am slowly going to make a transition. It is obvious that it is much more suitable for my style anyways(16/13-18/13 or so at FR, I played 24/22 when I tried out some 6-max), but right now the profit at FR is so easy I can't convince myself to leave and learn a new game quite yet. I don't mind variance because playing with a big BR would make it feel like it isn't bad at all and I would also drop down a level to play it so the money wouldn't be huge. But if anyone wants to pay me 10k/month while learning to play 6-max I will gladly do it :P |

My plan is to get solid at FR and then switch.

Re: LC - Why don\'t you play 6 max ?
Same reasons - I'm naturally a TAG so FR fits my personality, I prefer less varience, casino play is FR. Plus with so many pros and semi-pros playing 6-max, why the hell would I want to play that? Give me a table full of chumps, any day.
Also, I like being the most aggressive player at my table. 6-max players play back at me too much and take me off my game. I know i will need to adjust to good, aggressive players, but at FR you don't start seeing tables full of them until 100NL+. I'm still in the micros where TAG ABC play gets the money. |
