A rare instance in which I didnt think a Miller article was very good. The isolate 96o with A4s example just wont work in a 10/20 short game.

sort of agree w/you. conceptually the point ed makes is powerful, but the example just isn't characteristic of the play at even 3/6, and definitely not higher. folks just don't call that passively w/crap.

From my experience playing 5/10 6max at Party in the first half of this year, I'd say that there are definitely players that loose and passive. They may not be a dime a dozen (maybe more like 1 in 20), but if you datamine, you'll find them. At least I did 6 months ago. YMMV.
The key (to me) seems to be finding a seat where you can isolate such players and not get aggressively and routinely three-bet preflop by players to your left.
The thing I liked about 6-max is that some of the sick beats you see there more often turn tables into tiltfest feeding frenzies than you see at full table games at the same stakes.
