Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6652998, member: 397965"] As others have said, a 6-max table is essentially just a 9-max table, where the first 3 players have folded. So if you know, what to do in that situation, then you also know how to play 6-max. Thats basically all, there is to it. As Station_Master say, as a broad generalisation the player pool at 6-max is typically a bit looser and more aggressive, so you might want to not fold quite as much, as you do at full ring. But this is mainly, when people have an option. If a site only has 6-max, or there is essentially no action at 9-max, then you will of course find all types of cash players at 6-max tables. Furthermore at 2NL there is not much point in focusing on these subtle details. The far more important factor is, that its the lowest stake available, so its always going to be full of beginners and gamblers. The differences come more into play at stakes like 10NL or 25NL. Here you might see those, who like to sit around and wait for a set or an overpair, gravitate towards full ring, whereas those, who like to be the "table captain" and run big bluffs, will gravitate towards 6-max. At 10-25NL you will also generally find the most ambitious players at 6-max, because the format has a higher potential to move up. So an argument can be made, that at these stakes 9-max might be a bit softer and easier to beat. But at 2NL it really does not matter, so just play, whatever is available, or where you can find a good table. Personally I dont see any problem with having 6-max and 9-max tables running in the same session. Its still just a ring game, and the biggest danger by far is to think, you need to do something completely different, just because there are a few more or less people at the table. [/QUOTE]
