party 5/10 full game worth playing?

[fallout1234]

Last month I was complaining here how tight party 3/6 is. I then forced myself to play. After 13,600 hands I have a stat of 1.7BB/100Hands.
Now I started to play some 5/10. lost $600 at once. Table is tight again.
I wonder if you guys all play 5/10 6 max and skip 5/10 full? I've always avoided short handed games. But maybe now I have to try.
