Default 4 tables of 5/10 or 6 tables of 3/6?

I've been playing 5-10 6max for a while on party, and am beating it for about 1 BB/100 after 60k hands (I 4 table on my Samsung 20" monitor). Today, my friend wanted to see how many tables I could play, so I opened up 6 1/2 tables, and was cracking up at how easy the money was, even after opening 6 tables and not being able to follow absolutely every action.

I haven't played 3/6 at party for a while, and was wondering which is more + EV:
4 tables of 5/10
6 tables of 3/6.

Also, I'd probably get more rakeback, but also be paying more rake.

Thanks,
calcbandit

Hmmm.. the 3/6 is good, but I don't know if 2 more tables will make you a significantly larger amount of money, but I suppose it's possible. Do you care about earn right now or improving your game and continuing up the ladder? If that's the case I'd just stick with 5/10.

There's a mathematical answer for this, if your goal is to maximize the $ you make (I'm not trying to be sarcastic; improving as a player might be more important than making $).

If it is to maximize $, establish a rough winrate at 3/6. Shouldn't take too long 6 tabling. Compare the relative winrate at 3/6 and 5/10, taking into account the extra hands/hour.
