About 10 days ago I decided to start playing 6Max instead of regular FR., so I would say I'm just starting at this. I'm playing at Tribeca 100NL 6Max, and I feel I'm definitely doing something wrong because I'm suffering HUGE variance.. What could it be?

My game is still adapting, I started playing 3 Tables, but lately I'm playing only 2.. Also, I'm starting to play much more hands than at the beginning and my VPIP went from 22%~ to around 36%~ (Last 2k Hands)

Is this standard? or definitely not. (I hope not), .. ?

It's 12.5k Hands or so.. Not BIG sample.



I thought posting my current stats wouldn't give any real idea on my game since it has been changing to adapt to the 6 max (which from time to time turns in to 3 - 4 handed).

One more thing.. I'm working hard on my aggression, it seems I was much more aggressive at FR than I am at 6max.

I think 36% is too loose... I play like 26ish, and that seems decent...

Plus, yeah, variance is a biatch at 6max...

yea, 36% is too loose if your not a sick player postflop or if u dont like variance...or if you didnt sell your soul for good luck like Xaston.

Through 46k hands my VPIP is 23%...and ive never had a downswing of more than 5 buyins.

I count (9) times you lost a buy in and twice where you lost 2 or more. Thats an aweful lot for only 12K hands.

Tighten up and play less big pots at least until you get used to 6 max. You should play it just like you would full ring, until you get reads on each player which shouldnt take more than a couple rounds.
