6 max players strategies

[krikri]

Hi i 'm a new member here. I have juste suscribe few minutes ago. This website is great !!!

I'm playing poker online since 4 months and only play at full table of 10 persons. I'd like to begin to play at a 6 max players table. Are they any books about that type of game ? I read the Hypermegachi's guide but i would like to learn more. Every book i red was about 10 people game or heads up. I didn't find one about 6 players.

Thank's for your help guys !!

Limit or No Limit?

I'd like some advice too.

I play a no-limit home game and we never have more than 6.

I know I should loosen up the starting hands requirements, but if there's any books out there, I'm all ears.

You simply change the values of position according to how many players remain to act behind you.
For instance in a ten handed game, late position is defined as having 0-1 players to act behind you, this stays the same in a short game.
Middle position is generally defined as having 2-4 players to act behind you, so in a short game of 6 players, the third and fourth seat are middle position.
There is essentially no early position, although in a particularly loose game I might play seat 3 as early.
A six handed table has a lot more bluffing, but I have found that you still need a good hand to win most of the time. It isn't until you get down to four handed that simple aggression works.

ok, so i just forget about early position ?
let's say i play UTG and UTG +1 like middle position
and i play button and button -1 like late position
that's 6 people if you count the blinds. I see.

Hypermegachi also says that Axs and 22-66 go down in value and AJ, AT KQ, KJ, KT, go up in value and you may raise with those hands.
