Hey fellow poker players. How goes it?
I stumbled upon piv's post about 6 max. I was curious on everyones opinions on the advantages of 6 max vs full ring. For some reason 6 max seems like it would be more profitable. So I may switch to 6 max after studying up on the guide and reading your replys. Thanks!

I think a good 6max player will make more than an equally good full ring player but the swings will be bigger cos there's more action. I've always thought more fish would play 6max over fullring, but I could be wrong.

Dave summed it up, 6-max has bigger swings but they're obviously concomitant with bigger profits.

Seems like more action junkys play 6max.

Thanks guys. I have been playing some 6 max lately and I like it better than full ring. made like $200 so far at NL25 and a little NL50

I think it's very beneficial to be good at both. full ring will inevitably have lower swings and a nitty style can be very very profitable (ie. wota), so if you're getting the bad end of the variance stick at 6max and can't stand it, it is very useful to be able to switch to a lower variance style at least until you get your confidence back. Likewise if you become an action junky while playing full ring, being able to jump into a juicy 6max game and pwn is worthwhile.
