If you enjoy your sanity, don't play 6-max.

Is there really money in 6max? i mean all i hear you guys do is say how bad the swings are and how many BB's you can lose in a session. Only been playing 6max for a couple of days but its real tough

I lost for a month before I could beat the $1/2 5max at Paradise. Before that I could easily beat any full ring game at same limit. That is what makes SH more fun.

In about 15000 total 6max hands at 1/2 (6K) and 5/10 (9K) I am around 6BB and 4 BB respectively. This is probably because I'm in the middle of an upswing, but fish are EASY to find

Wow thats wicked stats. Very hard to maintain that at full ring.

Alternatively: If you enjoy your sanity don't play 6max poorer than Josh.

I'd rather have the money than my sanity.

wise advice. I should post a graph of my last 30K hands. Two 250BB+ downswings, its an ugly ugly graph.

6max is hard and makes me suicidal. Warn your children not to get involved
