Why would you be able to play more hands for a profit in a 3-4 handed game as opposed to a 6 handed game with 2-3 folds in front of you?

Playing constantly 3-4 handed is very different from 6max play.

Why?

The psychology of a really shorthanded game is usually totally diferent. People start calling with almost anything (Q5o in the SB? CALL!!), so your fold equity goes way way down.

Like Schneids says, this is really subjective. Which mistakes are your opponents making, calling too much, folding too much, etc. ? You adjust your raising standards based on that.

Don't you guys have different raising standards at 6max from the CO and BTN based on the players behind you and in the blinds? You should..

I completely agree. It's the players that make the difference and actions they take.
