6 max variance is a bitch!! No content
Wow, in less than 200 raked hands I was as far up as 50 BB and down as far as 35... the players are so bad, but the swings make me seasick
Its a fuggin E-ride at disney land [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Anyway, thanks 2+2, another wacky profitable 6 max night.. Spent 4 hours at the same table with a 90/25/22 who would bluff 3 bet into a field of 4 callers with ace rag on a coordinated high board about once an orbit He capped all streets with AQo no pair when I turned quads. |

Re: 6 max variance is a bitch!! No content
I have just started to dabble in 6max lately, and yes, the swings have been crazy. So far I've been able to hit my hand limit per day, or just get too hungry/tired to play anymore, while I was up. Playing at .50/1, I bought in for $30, went up to $55, down to $20, then back up to 38 before leaving. I'm sure some have experienced worse, but coming from full ring, I hadn't, and I though I was gonna have a heart attack. Well, not really. But it's gonna take a little getting used to.

I have had this at 1/2. It can cause severe paranoia and rage. Granted every time this happens it's a donkey who had no business in the hand to begin with so you will get back those losses and then some of him or his cousins...... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Sorry, couldnt help it, heres the quads hand
Some of the genius behind villains play... You can now see where the 85 BB of variance come from. I value 3 bet ace rag no pair against this guy on the river once, hah

Re: 6 max variance is a bitch!! No content
I played my first 6 max game last night and I concur. I love the fast pace but damn if my stack didn't go up and down like a yo-yo. Coming from full ring that's gonna take some getting used to.
Went back to full ring after 1/2 hour on 6 max and I almost couldn't take how slow it was. I need to find a comfort level with 6 max. |
