I found 5/10 to be difficult and it took me a while to learn to beat it.

Really? Maybe I've been luckboxing, but I've found the players at 5/10 to be rather awful post-flop and very easy to run over. After 26k hands (now, after today's session), I'm running at a blistering 2.52bb/100, so no complaints at all. I have a hunch that by 50k hands, it will converge down to 1.75-2, but still -- 5/10 full has been great for me.

As for the 6-max, I just don't like it. I know everyone says it's a softer game, and I do believe that it is. But I just don't have fun playing it. I don't like 6-max so I won't play it often. I have played a few thousand hands here and there to get my feet wet, and it's helped me in blind-steal situations at full ring (as well as in B&M play or when full tables get short-handed), but overall I just have a lot more fun at full ring and find that my style gels with that much better.
