do you think this works better in 6max as opposed to full ring?

full ring. having a 9% VPIP would be a disaster in 6-max

does the faster blinds really override the advantage of getting paid off better on the few hands you do play?

all I play is 6max....I think the percentage of donks at the table is much higher. At the full rings, you usually have 6 or 8 rocks, and 2 or 3 donks. At the 6max you usually have 1 rock, a couple of 30% and three donks...50% donks. You tend to make your money off these donks and you are involved in more hands with them, so you do tend to get paid off more I'd think than at full ring...but then again, I haven't played full ring because sitting there with a 12% vpip would drive me crazy.
