I currently play a lot of STTs $10+1 and above, I am currently making a small profit per month. I am looking to boost my profit and was thinking that playing ring games could be the answer.
I have played a few before and usually start well and then get f**ked over.
What I'd like to know is...
How do you select a "juicy" table? and how do you know when to leave?
Are there any differences from tournemant style to ring style I should be looking out for?
Is 6max easier than full ring?
Should I be looking to only play premium hands or should you play a variety and try to bluff?
What sort of buy-in should I be going for at the start. I have about $300 in my pacific poker account.
Any other hints or tips much appreciated.

I'm not really a ring game player so you'll get better answers later...
I double up then leave. I avoid tables where many people have higher amounts than the max buyin, could indicate luck but also skilled players.

6 max is playing more hands than you would at a full table, and requires better post flop play. the tables also tend to be looser at 6max, full ring is where all the tight nits play.
