i love shorthanded...mainly because when it happens where i play, many dont know how to play it, or are scared of it...they tend to play it like a ring game...or walk from the table til more players come.
my questoion is when to play a shorthanded style...6 handed or less? at what point do you open the aggression up? i think this also stems from the fact that i used to play 5 handed max online, so i wasnt sure where 6 handed fit in.
usually if its 5 handed or less, ill play as S&M suggest and have a great time of it...
but should i also use that in 6 handed? i tried it tonight when it went 6 handed...i decided not to wait for 5 handed...and it worked pretty well...
usually 6 handed i play more cautiously/less aggressive than 5. i know it seems to be like splitting hairs since were only talking 1 extra player...but a post by jim brier earlier, really got me thinking about when to implore that style, and it seemed unanimous that 6 handed should be played in aggressive shorthanded style.
any thoughts welcome...
