Well, everyone else was right...

    Default Well, everyone else was right...

    When they told me that the best fishing is at 6-Max...

    How many hands of 6-max do you think I need for a good idea of true win rate?

    I can already see why the swings are so bad... lol

    But, It's nice to be truly paid off with TPTK! =)

    Thoughts so far... (please correct)

    Preflop:
    1. When your not Button/SB/BB, Pre-Flop you play almost as tight at full ring.

    2. The button can play a lot looser because of posistion. Button should also be stealing a lot.

    3. SB can complete/steal with anything connected, suited, or with any high card

    4. BB should steal if it'ss folded to a SB that just completes.

    5. Rember that even if you think someone is stealing, and you are right, they still could have AA this time.

    6. PFR is good, do it a lot.

    Flop/Turn/River:

    1. Implied odds are much better in 6-max. You can destack someone when they have MPMK. Call more than normal with a draw, but do NOT be stupid about it. Call only with good odds, but you can "fudge" more with your better inplied odds.

    2. Reading TPTK/Overpair/2 pair/Set vs things like TPLK/MPMK is a lot harder than in ring vs most of these players.

    3. If you think they are on a draw, bet the river if it's a blank (even if you have jack high) - Note: I dont do this much yet, but i'm trying to learn to trust my reads more.

    4. Dont bluff without a read. Too many cant fold.

    Thats it for now...
    Correct me where i'm wrong please! =)

    The most glaring thing i see that can be corrected is that you meant to say "Too" many can't fold, not "to" many can't fold. That's all from me though i am bad at 6-max .
