I guess what I am getting at is....

I moved to SH about 150k hands back and didn't look back. More hands per/hr, worse players, larger winrate, improve your game, etc. etc. About 50k hands back I started mixing full ring back in. I found that after my journey into 6-max, my full ring game hade improved enormously.

I find full table a nice contrast to SH - it's a bit more relaxed and straightfoward. Depends what mood I am. Also, I can fit the same number of hands in per/hour by simply playing more tables. I think my overall winrate is probably slighly lower at a full table, but not that much worse. If you excise good table selection, you can find some good tables at the mid limits, but you probably need better table selection than at 6-max.

You should probably stick with 6-max for now, until you are comfy with the mid-limit 6-max games. Then go back to full ring and notice how much better you play in position and in blind steal/defence situations.

I love this post.

I'm a full ring player. I've been playing 3/6 600NL full ring and I'm trying to learn 6 max.

I stink at 6 max.

I play poorly from the big blind.
I'm a 18/9 VP$IP/PFR.

I dropped down to 6 max 200NL to learn 6 max.I lost.

Now I'm in the petting zoo at 25 NL and I think I only win because the players stink so badly.

How did you learn 6 max?
