My current game is 2/4 full ring at Party. I am thinking about moving up. However, most players at the higher limits seem to stick to 6-max, and I have very little experience playing short-handed limit. What do you guys recommend?
1. Learn 6-max before moving up
2. Move up to 3/6 or 5/10 full ring.

I'm playing 6 max for the exact same reason as you mention.

In 6 max you are in the blinds 1/3 of the time so you'll definately learn to play good blind play both steal and defense.

For a soft start at 6max games I reccomend 1/2£ crypto.
