Here is a table I was happy about today.

Names have been removed.

My HUD stats are (in this respective sequence):

VP$IP / PFR% / Total Aggression Factor
Att. to Steal % / Fold BB to a Steal %

The guys to the left were loose limpers but tight when facing a riase.

Nice, but that station behind you could make things a bit nasty. BTW, I've seen you a couple times around party, and you've always sat yourself on my right. I left those tables pretty quickly.

My table selection must be working then, 'cause I don't know your screenname. But if I knew it was you, I'd leave your tables alone. I wouldn't bogart your fish on purpose. =)

Those look pretty awesome. You should have seen some of the monster tables I found last night at the 10/20 game that I had to leave or not even sit down at. 3 60/30s do not make for a fun session when they are all over the table.

Guess it's personal preference, but I love a table like that.

If there is two and I can have position on one without having the other on my left, then yeah I agree. But when there are three and you cant get any good position on any more than 1, while having the other 2 to my left, its such a high variance session I'd rather find another table.

My favorite things about 60/30s is being able to iso 3-bet them with any hand I'm going to play. I can't do that when you have guys on your left habitually calling 3 cold with any ace.

I sat at one of your tables for a second last night by accident - and then quickly scampered away.

I think the only time I've played any hands with you is when you sat, and I made 2 gutshots in a row before you even got dealt in.

When I saw that table the first thing I thought was



Postflop play at a table like that amounts to picking a good hand preflop (especially one that plays well multiway) and holding on for the ride. Those are really big aggression factors for guys that play that loose.

High variance, but high rewards if you run good. It's all in the head!!11!

How come you're only playing 10/20 6max now? I thought the plan was to win there for a while then to climb back up?

It was until I found there are no good 15/30 full ring tables on Party with any sort of regularity. Fast forward 5 months later, having to cash out for taxes and my stakings not panning out as planned, and I was cash crunched. Also I'm really getting into the whole 6 max thing and enjoying the weekly 150-300 BB swings.

After vegas I plan on hitting up the 30/60 FR tables again on Party (no more 8 tabling, do some cherry picking on weekends) and other sites. I'm currently doing research on finding some decent tables at unlikely sites during the day to increase my hand output.

Until then, I've been working on the remaining leaks I have in my 6 max play. Not playing enough hands and becoming too tight because of the accelerator bonus cost me March and blind play cost me April. Currently the only thing holding me back is 3 hands: 66, 77, and 22, which are my 3 biggest losers this month. 66 and 77 I showdown too much and 22 I just recently re-added to my game so that should increase.

Whether or not I'll play the 20/40 shorthanded games I have no idea, those games are pretty agro at times and I could see myself chilling at 10/20 and 15/30 6 max for a while, while also hitting up the 30/60 FR games for the rest of the year. If I can find the games, I'll play them.

i sometimes browse though the 20/40 6max tables just for entertainment reasons, i do same with 30/60 and up...

anyways, if you can find the right tables the game looks to play no diffrently then the games you play aganst maniacs at 10/20 and 15/30... now i'm sure there are a few adjustments that need made but with currect "cherry picking" i'm sure you'd be fine up there...
