HU pot sizes
 

Swimming with the fishes and playing a lot of 2 or 3 handed right now.

I have noticed that the pots are much bigger HU or 3 handed than a full table.

Is this normal or maybe my agression has went over the line?

Comments?

It's not just you; you have to play more aggressively shorthanded (since, most of the time, no one flops anything), but I think your average short-handed donk takes things way too far. They like the pace and action of shorthanded because more hands become "playable" these people loves to plays da cardz... It's fairly typical that I'm the only one at the table with a VPIP under 45-50% (something like 23% - and if they're smart and recognize this, they're more likely to play back at my ass...).

E.g. consistenly check-raising the turn with air in a 3.25 BB pot, capping from the BB with A9o because "well, they could be trying to steal from me, ya know...", etc.

Now maybe the 2-3 handed you're talking about is profoundly different from the 6-handed that I like to play... I struggle enough with 6-handed though that I'm loathe to find out.
