Re: To absolute players
My .02/.04 big blind...
Absolute 6-max...yes, it's softer than Absolute full ring, but it is in no way even close to as soft as Stars, Party, or UB. My PT stats show the Absolute 6-maxers at 39/10.5, and the others at a combined 45/9.5. That's a significant difference in VPIP, isn't it?
The typical 6-max table is one or two loose players, and the rest a combination of TAGs and rocks draining the loosey of cash. (If the loosey is a LAG, the rocks also fold to him often enough to keep him in cash a while longer.) When the fish is dead, the table breaks up. Rinse and repeat.
Adding to the problem: Absolute's default buy-in is too low. All too often, fish lose their $20 at 1/2 and they leave, leaving you with the rocks and TAGs.
It's very beatable, but not nearly at the rate Stars or Party are.
