So far I've basically been playing 6-max exactly how I play FR when the first three fold...I don't really know of any general post-flop adjustments I should be making.

Here's a classic FR situation where I'm inclined to lay it down due to being OOP unless I've got a read the guy's very aggro.

I had no reads. Good laydown in a 3-way? What about if UTG wasn't in this?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $1 BB (6 handed) Party-Poker Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Button ($84.20)
SB ($56.04)
BB ($288.05)
UTG ($126.38)
Hero ($122.30)
CO ($98.50)

Preflop: Hero is MP with J, A.
UTG calls $1, Hero raises to $5, CO calls $5, 3 folds, UTG calls $4.

Flop: ($16.50) 8, J, T (3 players)

Hero bets $12, CO Raises to $35, hero ... ?

What is UTG's Action on the flop? Converter messed up.

This is a sucky spot. Assuming that UTG check/folded?? I would have to agree, that just like FR, unless you have an Aggro read on the CO, it's probably best to let this go. Taking TPTK to the felt is a high variance move, and it looks like your only options here are Push/Fold.
Hey knucklehead! Bonk!

I think I would make a nittish fold until I develop better reads. I don't know if that means we should fold AA here but I really don't think the CO is messing around here, especially with someone still left to act behind before the action gets to you.

BTW whats your party screen name?

felt it please?????
too many draws out there, and if your behind you have outs except if he flopped it, most likely doing this draws draws and draws. shouldnt be worried about queens up because he just called pf , i expect all those hands to re raise..... please felt this!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I gotta get back to the money....

Genitruc is an unknown quantity at this point
such a great board to bluffraise vs nits and such a terrible board to do it vs aggros
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

Im usually pretty laggy at 6max so its a fold most of the time. Depends on what range villain puts you on and villain's agression.
if Im lagging it up and he is tight- I fold. If im running taggish and he has been aggro- I'll raise it up and see what he does.
