Best was of making money online!

Gus Ivey

This may be a ridicolous thread.

do people find it any easier to make money at a 6seater table rather than a 9? or vice versa? would you play 6 seaters more if you were a looser player and liked to see a lot of flops, or 9seaters if you were tighter.
What about SnG's?
Any other views?

I find the 6 seater cash tables to be the most profitabe for me, i cant explain why really, and i find an aggressive approach benefits me most at them... its always worked for me anyway!!!

in terms of SnG's i dont have a preference, i feel theres more value maybe in the 9 or 10 seaters but they are time consuming and if ur making money in the 6 pacs theres no reason to stop playing them.

I know, but it's not the best TBH and maybe some of the newer members would like to discuss the topic. I know I personally don't like 6 month old threads getting bumped with a new question, so I'll give this thread a little leeway (very little, mind) to see if anything develops, but I assume it'll die naturally or if it goes mad off topic I'll just bang it into the BB thread, so it's just a fair warning.

full ring ftw, not under as much pressure to get involved.

i dont really multi-table cash but i presume they would be easier to multi as well because there is more abc poker involved than 6 max. 6 max your forced to get involved with marginal hands more

6 max your forced to get involved with marginal hands more

and that's why 6max>>fr

Am I to take from this that you no longer wish to see threads on playing AK from oop, small pairs from ep, sc's from lp etc etc etc... yet when Bops posts about playing 73o from UTG to a pot sized raise you complain about that also when in fact it is quite an original thread.

Pretty much everything about poker has been discussed on this forum at one stage or another - with that in mind do you propose that rather than lock this thread and others like it that the mods should in fact lock the entire forum and leave the search function as the last remaining tool of this place?

cause you have to play loads more marginal/tough spots, so a good players edge is maximised.

Because the more marginal situations bad poker players get into the more money you make. In full ring bad players can still make money cause its just a question of waiting for hands and hoping you get paid. In 6 max you can't play like this.

The skill level needed for being a sucessful 6max player is much higher IMO. So when a good player plays with bad players they take more money from the them much quicker. Its also were most of the gambling type poker players like to play cause they are action junkies.

Also as a poker player you also improve much quicker as you find yourself in more marginal situation much more often.

These are just a few of the things i can think of now off the top of my head.

we have this thread at least once a month, usually with a poll, and we get the same replies everytime. there's nothing to be discussed here. ak oop, now that's a different story! I like to raise, and 4bet if i get reraised.

we also have threads on playing AKo oop regularly also. Do you have issues with people looking for advice? Did you ever start what you would now probably classify to be a noob thread when you first started posting on boards?

And we get people slating every new persons topics/questions every DAY as well. One person latched on to the sarcasim root, and now everyones a funny man!! The posts that are more interesting always have the most replies and are also at the top of the page anyway, so why just ignore the ones that you have no interest in??!

phantom_lord

apples and oranges. i don't see how you can compare threads about "ak oop" to 6max vs full ring.

no i don't. and yes i did post simple hands. but even simple hands have stuff to be discussed, and the answers never gonna be exactly the same.

Phantom Lord and opr i said in 6max your forced to get involved with marginal hands more so its harder to multi table as you have to concentrate more and have harder decisions etc.

i said in my original post that full ring is more abc than 6max.

i disagree that you can simply put one over the other, different styles of play suit different games. so where do you rate sit and go players compared to cash players then???

donk and go players suck obv.


your wr and $/hour is gonna be way lower at fr, plus it's gonna be very boring. if just want to set mine and net pedal then i guess fr is the way to go.

nicnicnic wont be happy with that comment

how many tables do you multi when playing 6max???
do you not think you could play more full ring???

set mine and nut pedal is the way forward

Jam-Fly

Very easy to achieve a 20% ROI from SNGs, and you can 4 table them easily because the decisions are so trivial. I personally achieve best hourly rate playing 3-6 tables (SNGs) at once

it's a well know fact!

4-8 depending, i'd need another screen to play more, and i'd imagine my wr would be lower even with more tables.

Well, at least we are getting our monthly 6 max vs FR thread out of the way towards the start of this month.

here no offence Lloyd, your a respectable poster but if you dont want to get involved in threads that doesnt interest you then dont. I would rather if you either didnt get involved in the thread than write something insulting. either stay out or write something constructive.

I thought it would be interesting as to what people think and how the votes went. Not for yours,or anyone whos not interested benefit, but for mine and people who are interested

Thank you.

Fr. I keep getting dicked everytime i try 6-max. I blamed it on everyone being a donk, but it must be due to the fact i am ****.

The reason I play 6-max and find it massively more profitable than Full Ring is for the following reasons:
(1) The average Poker player at my level is a far inferior player than me, when it's 6-max people are forced to play more hands and get themselves into more marginal situations. On average I will make better decisions than them and so the more decisions they have to make the more $$ I make.
(2) Recreational/gambler type players prefer 6-max because there's more action then in Full Ring, and I want to be playing at the tables of as many of these guys as possible.
(3) It's much easier to spot the multi-tabling set miners and these guys can be raped continously, it's quite easy to spot when a 15/7 guy has a hand, so just avoid them when they enter a pot or play something that plays well against what is undoubtedly a good hand, to hopefully stack them as they'll view me as a loose maniac/ tard.

Overall it's just much more preferable, the Variance is higher than Full Ring but if you are adequately BR'ed it can be very profitable.

As for SNG's I never played them enough to compare but I'd find it almost impossible to get the same hourly rate playing them compared to cash, and to me they are boring as hell and I would consider them to be more gambly then a 6-max cash game. If I take a Bad Beat in a SNG, I've lost my money, if I lose it in a cash game I can re-load and (assuming the fish doesn't rat-hole it away) play deeper with the fish and hopefully take my money, as well as his back before he loses it to someone else.

I hack people's accounts and steal their money, there are a few threads about it I think.

I think 6 max are more profitable at levels $1-$2 to $5-$10 NL. Get a few maniacs in a full ring game though and it can be a right party, it doesn't happen often enough though. Full ring though are easier to multi -table so if you can find loose full ring games I'd prefer them, but at this point in time 6 max is where the money's at in the medium stake games anyway.

On an aside while I agree with BCB's general point of view, the hostility towards Lloyd is kinda a bit whoaaaa, has Lloyd got 666 on the back of his head or did he just do something like spill your drink or snog your bird before?
