a question for no limit players

[Chykynlyps]

i have been reading through some of the threads here at 2p2 and have noticed that many people feel that playing a shorthanded table is more difficult than playing full ring - while i agree that you play short handed and full ring differently, i have always been better at a short table than a full one - basically, i am wondering aabout the advantages and disadvantages of playing sorthanded as opposed to a full ring game - thank you in advance

Shorthanded
-Less people at the table
-You get to play more hands
-Reading opponents becomes more important
-Easier to read opponents because there are less of them
-Usually less money at the table

Ring Game
-You play less hands
-More people at the table
-Reading becomes harder because you have more people at the table
-Usually more money at the table because there are more people.

The swings are greater in shorthanded games due to everyone being more agressive. This may make it harder to learn as you have to pick the right amount of aggression and not be a maniac

I want to move onto that soon [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

You can make more per table playing shorthanded since you get to be involved more often, but I think it is harder to multitable (for the same reason), so you may not make more per hour.

Also, variance is much higher is a 6 max game...

they also tend to be more aggressive, at least Party NL100
