Full Table vs 6max
 

I see by past posts that many of you find the 6 max tables at one level higher than your normal to be quite lucrative.

Here are just a few of my questions:
Are there any books that specifically address playing style at the 6 max?
Why do you find them to be softer?...if they indeed are?
How much do you adjust your play?
Don't the blinds kill you coming so often?
Do any sites seem to be fishier than others?

I love the 6 max tables. Most players at the lower limit 6 max are eager for action and mostly pretty loose. On an average day if you play tight aggressive you make a good profit. I only play lowere limits like 2 4 and 3 6 because as you said the blinds can eat you up at the higher limits.
I dont know of any books specific to shorthanded play, but there are references in super system. Mainly it says to play a little looser. Howard lederer said he plays a 6 max table like he does a full table. Meaning If your first to act at a 6 max table youre really in middle position at a full table. If that makes sense. So really you can play your middle position cards at a full table the same as if you were first to act on a 6 max table.
As regards to sites, I find the sites that have alot of european plays like interpoker and noble poker the loosest, and most profitable.

read the relevant threads on the heads-up and short-handed board. Look for the posts by King Yao on 6 handed holdem
