Re: Ed Miller\'s 6-max Article
[ QUOTE ]
A rare instance in which I didnt think a Miller article was very good. The isolate 96o with A4s example just wont work in a 10/20 short game. [/ QUOTE ] sort of agree w/you. conceptually the point ed makes is powerful, but the example just isn't characteristic of the play at even 3/6, and definitely not higher. folks just don't call that passively w/crap. |

[/ QUOTE ] From my experience playing 5/10 6max at Party in the first half of this year, I'd say that there are definitely players that loose and passive. They may not be a dime a dozen (maybe more like 1 in 20), but if you datamine, you'll find them. At least I did 6 months ago. YMMV. The key (to me) seems to be finding a seat where you can isolate such players and not get aggressively and routinely three-bet preflop by players to your left. The thing I liked about 6-max is that some of the sick beats you see there more often turn tables into tiltfest feeding frenzies than you see at full table games at the same stakes. |

[/ QUOTE ] I see players like this all the time in the 3/6 game. Its not most people so you can't use this as a blanket strategy, but I'd say there is usually at least one of these types at every other table I play at (part of which is likely table selection on my end). Sometimes even when that guy is around it doesn't mean you are in a position to fully take advantage of him, but when you can Ed's line should be a pretty standard thing and shouldn't be new to anyone with any 6-max experience. |
