Hi,
I do not play $2/4 6 handed often, I usually play lower.
I played 3 tables yesterday. They were aggressive - a lot of reraises, they bluffed a lot.
I played poker with good hands, I folded when I did not flopped a top pair, a second pair with an overcard or a good draw with pot odds.
I was $330 lighter after one hour of the play.

What do you pros do as a defense against their play?

KoRnholio will become famous soon enough
 I can't remember which book it was, but it basically said in shorthanded play you can't play "fit or fold" once the flop comes (like in full ring). Heads up against a loose and aggressive player any pair may be good. Middle pair is often good even against less aggressive players.

You'll basically be raising/calling down on much lighter values than in full ring games.
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

We change tables.

Other than that, you ran bad, probably spewed/tilted a little, probably called too many turn checkraises.
