Statistically would you make your straights, or flushes, in a 9 seated table or a 6 seated table?

I like drawing hands more specifically straights because everyone knows danger is lurking when there are 3 hearts on the board. But a K643Q rainbow looks pretty innocent and since 75 are my favorite rags I like a board like that lol.

What cards you get doesn't depend on how many people are on the table.

Drawing hands are obviously better when there are more people in the pot (you're very likely to win if you make your hand, so you want as many people putting money in as possible; also you get better odds for drawing), so you might think this favours full tables. However I find that at 6-seaters people just play more loosely, with more limped pots, so you'll get a similar number of people in the pots on either.
