1. There are just not that many super loose 3-6 games online.

[img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] This has not been my experience at all. Unless by "super loose" you mean every player sees every flop, you're way off base.

5. You may wish to take advantage of 6-max tables

[/ QUOTE ]

SSH is directly applicable to 6-max tables. I would recommend it over HPFAP.

6. You may want to keep playing with a super live one, even if
nearly everyone else at the table leaves.

In my experience, most online 3/6 games quaily as one of Miller's "tight" loose games.

[/ QUOTE ] No I don't mean that. The 3-6 at party is just not that loose all the time. If you can't handle an old-style vegas 10-20, you are giving up some winnings in these games.

I am not sure what you are saying. The live ones are not always maniacs. What is wrong with playing heads-up?

I agree. I just read my copy for the first time and there are many concepts that apply mid-highish games.

This is a must read for any poker player.

Default Re: why the hell....

B&M games are far easier than online games of the same limit. I can beat my local B&M game for 1-2 BB hour at limits of 10-20 or 15-30. I would probably get crushed at Party 15-30.

It is also very easy to read a player at BM. The table stays the same for an extended period and you can gain much more information about how a player plays by being in their presence.
