Well, people post full ring hands where they play marginal hands OOP and then we yell at them and tell them they can't win playing these hands with a VPIP of 30%.

So they go play the same hands at 6 max so it makes it all OK somehow because that is a reasonable VPIP at 6 max.

Get it?

KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

From what I've seen, 6 max tables seem to be a lot looser. I've seen sites where the 6-max tables have a larger average pot size than 10-max.

I was just joking. I was alluding to the recent 6 max threads where people are playing all these marginal hands preflop.

I think the real reason is that there more inexperienced action junkies playing 6 max so the game is more profitable. They play too loose and call too much - the same reason why omaha/8 can be really profitable if you know what you are doing (which I don't).

So far from what I've seen the tables are waaaaay looser than full ring. It's not uncommon to have 5 people in the pot PF that all called a PF raise.

It makes me wonder if it's worth raising the more "marginal" hands PF on some tables. People apparently aren't folding to them, and they're chasing everything.

I think you got it Poks, when there are alot of people in the pot you still need a good hand to enter it. When there are less people in your numbers will rise with stealing the blinds and defending the blinds in certain situations.

^ Now Phyto when I can usually count on 4-5 people going to the flop is it worth playin big suited cards for flush potentials?
