Six Max or Nine Handed Pt Two

December 9th, 2009

In our last article we touched on the benefits and downfalls of 6 max online poker games. Here, we’ll give a review of the 9 man full ring and the ups and downs of this type of ring game. In 9 man, you’ll be playing a lot less poker online hands. What’s a raisable hand on the cutoff at 6max, is foldable and only foldable at full ring. But on to the benefits. Since you get to sit out more often in full ring, you don’t have as many blind postings, which means you can wait a lot more often for a monster hand to take people’s money with. You also get a chance to see how other online poker players are playing, as your play will be tighter here than six max giving you the chance to see how other players bluff, raise, and generally play since you’ll be observing about 80% of the time. The downside here is that you’ll be playing less, so you’ll be profiting less per hour since the game’s intrinsic nature allows for fewer hands per hour. And more of your outs will be dealt to other players as there are 6 extra cards gone from the deck. But, if you choose the right tables, it’s much easier to multitable 9man than it is to multitable 6 max.
