Same here—I like 6-max. It’s faster, more action, and you get to play more hands without the chaos of a full ring.

For me, the ideal tournament—the perfect MTT—is one with eight players at the table. In 6-max, you need to be a much more aggressive player. The fewer players there are at the table, the more aggressive you have to be. And in 4-max, you need to bluff all the time, which makes the variance much higher. You have to be a very skilled player and study a lot. So, in my opinion, for my style of play, an MTT with eight players at the table is perfect.

I like to play with 9 players.However, it's all about personal preference and finding the best solution for you and your poker buddies.The focus also includes technical and organizational aspects of the game, which impact the comfort of participants and the overall quality of the competitive process. These factors play a key role in creating a stimulating and engaging gaming environment, facilitating the development of skill among participants.

I’d go with 6 too—enough action to keep it interesting, but not so many that it feels like you need a telescope to see what everyone’s doing. Plus, fewer players = fewer chances for that one guy who insists on “explaining” every hand. 😅

Each format changes the game. Short-handed tables reward aggression and constant pressure. Six-max feels balanced enough action, enough strategy. Full tables demand patience and discipline. There’s no “best” choice, only what fits your style and mindset at the moment.
