Playing 6 max.....
It seems that more and more people are clamoring for 6-max events. I've never played 6-max before.. What sorts of things are different in a 6max game as opposed to full? What kind of M adjustments need to be made (if any)?
Honestly, I'm sort of afraid of 6-max because it seems like it would be nothing but aggression and marginal decisions every hand. |

Way more loose and alot of Btn vs SB BB steals etc. I like 6max though as I feel I have a edge vs others.

Re: Playing 6 max.....
Most players Can not/Will not/Do not adjust their ranges. Player reads and the ability to shift gears become more and more important.
Basically, you're not allowed to play ABC poker successfully. |

Re: Playing 6 max.....
in any form of poker the fewer the players at the table the more skill is needed, as you will get blinded down just waiting for good hands.

Re: Playing 6 max.....
I agree, player reads become much more important. You have to really to play the player, rather than position/stack size etc.
If you spot weak players at your table, you really need to go after them and bully them. |

Re: Playing 6 max.....
The edge in a 6max is better because we get to see way more hands than in a 9man where we can sometimes never get a hand. It's also much easier to play with a short stack pushing/folding than a 9 man table where it's a lot tougher to get a good shove in if you are short. It's easier to pwn the bubble in many cases because of this.
