It seems that generally people would rather play 6 handed at 5/10, one of those strange things. Not to say the games aren't nice and beatable though.

I've asked the exact same question before.

5-10 full tables along with 10-20 full tables are overall the tightest tables on party. you can still find good games but overall all the other games are much better.

5-10 6 max is a different story though. you find great action on those tables.

The pot averages may not be that high, but whenever I've played in them, they have been extremely beatable.

The shorthanded tables, however, are even more beatable... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

they may be tight but they can't play post flop for [censored]. tight does not necessarily mean unbeatable or even tough.

yeah, past lower limits,

the party at party poker (which there always is), is at 5/10 short, 10/20 short, and 15/30 full..

is it tough to transition from full to 6 max? i am familiar with the concepts of shorthanded play and have some experience, but I am not nearly as good as at the 10handed tables. If I am considering moving from 3/6 to 5/10 soon... should I consider focusing on the 6max?
