i like 8 or 9 handed

with 6 or fewer the blinds come around so fast . as a result you are forced to play a wide range of hands , and many will be mediocre .

I like 6-max as it allows you to play wider ranges than full ring games, and no one has fun folding every hand.

Hey! I prefer to play at tables with 9 players. This is my format, I feel comfortable in it.

I prefer 5 or 6, love me a little shorthanded play

If I'm not in the mood for strong competition though, then I'm ok with sitting at a 9 handed table where I can do a lot of folding and have lots of time for conversation with my table mates!

all depends on what kind of mood I'm in :confused:

I prefer a table with 9 players, 6max is too "aggressive" in my opinion.

While I dont mind when the table is not full I have to admit I really prefer a full table of 9 players when I play cash or tournaments. It just seems to be the right number of people to play with.


My thoughts exactly. I guess it comes down to preference, but 9 players per table just seems like the right amount. I don't mind shorter play, but 9 feels right.

Most of the tournaments I am interested in have 9 seats, so I prefer them. I'm used to them by now and don't even want to go back to six. But I also love the spin & go tables for three - fast and fun.

When I started playing poker at pokerstars, I only played in the 6 local.But lately, it doesn't matter to me whether there are 6 places or 9!

The main thing at the poker table is thinking, patience and luck!)

I am fan of 6 max games, but 4 max are pretty cool too. More people on table=less action

I like to play with 9 people at the table, be it cash or tournament. As far as I know, professionals love to play at a 6-max table.

For me, 4-5 is the most comfortable. When 8-9 people are many multipodes and crossings. I also like it when there are 1-4 people left at the final tables. :jd4::):jd4:

I like heads up. Also a full table of 9 players for the chance to make more money in less time.

for me the best format is 6 handed
you can play a wider range and defend more often

I think 3 is a lot of fun, but all amounts are good too!

I really prefer when there are 9 players at the table rather than 6 because I see too many sitouts at tables with 6 players.

The best format is 9p, but 6p also pleases me.

9

Lately with this freeroll, I play 9-player tables and I like it that way.

My favorite number at the poker table is 9. It just works for my style of game. I like to look at more hands without having to put in as many blinds.

Number

Favorite number at any poker table for me is six. This works for me all day. More then six sometimes takes all day as I prefer fast play. Capo1014
