party 3-6 tougher than 5-10?
Here's the background. Although I have played online. I had not played since Jan. 2 2004 when I cashed out to play live.
I had a bad run live, my car broke down and I decided to quit smoking so I have'nt played live in about 8 weeks. I regulary played 6-12 and 4-8 live. About 5 weeks ago I deposit 300 into party. Work that up to 800 playing 1-2. Worked it up to 1800 playing 2-4. I do nnot play more than two tables at a time. This weekend I decided to play a little 3-6 and 5-10 just to see. I pplayed 5-10 both full table and short handed. It seemed to me that the 3-6 game was toughr than the 5-10. I won some playing full table 5-10; lost some pplaying 5-10 short handed and broke about even playing 3-6. Over all up about 300. I know I dont have enough hands to make a valid comparison, but I though that the 3-6 players were tougher than the full table 5-10 players. What do the rest of you think. BTW, I also decide that I do not play shorthanded very well. I am not going to play until I read up some. Are the 1-2 tables representative of the 5-10 play, in other words, does playing 1-2 prepare me for 5-10. Thanks in advance. |

Re: party 3-6 tougher than 5-10?
your sample size is way too small. Personally I haven't found much difference in any of the games from 2-4 to 5-10. MAybe a little more 3 betting and check-raising at the higher limits.

3-6 is not tougher than 5-10
Are the 1-2 tables representative of the 5-10 play, in other words, does playing 1-2 prepare me for 5-10. I assume you mean 6-max. Yes it does, but the 1-2 is much more passive than the 5-10. You could post this in the shorthanded forum. To learn shanded when playing 2-4 and 3-6 you could sit in at shortahneded tables at those limits (they often fill up quickly) to ease yourself into shorthanded play yet not have to play below your bankroll instead of joining full or close to full tables. |

Re: party 3-6 tougher than 5-10?
I waited until I had 300 BB to move up to 3/6, and then when I had 200 BB of 5/10, decided to watch a few tables of 5/10. The "good" 5/10 tables seem pretty close to 3/6 so I've been playing both 3/6 and 5/10 depending on where I can find the best tables. There seem to be more "good" 3/6 tables, but I've been able to find 5/10 tables to my liking that are pretty similar to 3/6. Overall just a hair tighter and a bit more aggressive. But, tables with 2 clueless players at 40-50% VI$IP and call to the river with the gutshot or bottom pair are available. I don't play 5/10 tables unless I can find a "good" table so the avg. 5/10 table might be different.
