I know u have to change ranges and that but what else do u have to do different
I want to start playing 6 max cash games and not tourneys for starters. Do
anyone have good articles on 6 max cash games and how do i start learning 6 max cash games?
I am looking for a opening range chart for 6 max from pos. as well

You can think of six max as being the same as a nine handed table where the first 3 to act have folded. It's really the same thing and if you play 9 handed games you've been in this situation lots of times. If you're used to adjusting your range as your position changes at a 9 handed table then you should have no problem adjusting to a 6 max table.

Are you using position to your advantage and only playing top of your range out of it? This to me seems to be one of the biggest issues players have online at 6 max games. You don't necessarily need to loosen your range all the time in 6 max, but in late position it's definitely a good idea to be a bit looser with your raises. I still play early position the same in 6 max though. I only make plays with big hands except for the occasional deceptive play.

I tighten up in a 6max.

ABC poker works best for me.

In 6max cash games nits play around 15/12 or less, TAGs between 24/21 and 15/12, and LAGs play over 24/21. A good 3bet stat is between 5% and 10% imo.

I would advise bluffing less in the micros. The players at the lowest levels are going to call you with much weaker hands and they will pay off even if you are playing very tight.
