    #3 depends upon your preflop raise size, as the overall stack to pot ratio matters . What our pfr sizing these days MP in full ring?

    #4 6max is different, but I wouldn't play any of these from MP or EP, only CO or later, and sometimes I will 3bet bluff a weak steal. We don't get tons of community pots in 6max, so I'm looking for a profitable way to exploit one villain, and that's only going to happen with absolute position postflop (and some luck) or w/ a preflop takedown.

    I'm grinding 5NL on Bovada right now. The short answer is that limp and min-raise are by far the most common bet sizing from most players. ~65%
    There are a few that open to $0.25 whenever they enter, no matter how many limpers (god bless 'em). ~5%
    The better players are immediately obvious because they make pot-sized bets to enter. (I include the "3x plus 1 for each limper" rule as a pot-sized raise. It's only a SB off anyway.) Plus they know when to 3-bet and how to follow it up. ~30%

    I'm about to digress:
    Also, they some of them know how to avoid each other, I think (intuition on small sample). I think I noticed one guy making funny small bets against me earlier today. Smaller than he'd been making against other people. I folded the first time, 'cause I didn't know what was going on, but it felt wrong. Then I noticed he and myself and one other had been there for over 130 hands and everyone else was under 50 hands, and guess what, it was the 3 of us that were way over our buy-in. weeeee!

    Maybe he knew there was less of an edge against me? I never thought of this, but I think I really should. I've been just cold avoiding the "smart" players unless I have position and more premium holdings than usual. Is it a wise adjustment to bet smaller, and thereby give them better drawing odds?
