Reasonable session last night

I had a great session at 4NL, though I only played some 350 hands, I won over two BI.
I won a big pot of over $6 and generally played tight but aggressive, picking up uncontested pots and I got pretty good cards as well. Only after 5 minutes into the game, I flop a straight on two tables at the same time :) Didn't get paid on those though :(

After that I decided to play some 6-max at the 2NL tables on PokerStars. I think I've played less than 500 hands 6-max so I'm not used to that at all. I quickly drop two BI because I'm way too loose (35/25) and call too many hands with just a pair or even less. I try to be aggressive pre-flop but these guys just call all the time and often one of them catches the right card to win the pot. After a couple of rounds I decide to tighten up and that seems to work a little better. I do end up loosing $7 after getting sucked out on in a big pot.

Overall not a very succesful 6max introduction, so I plan on reading a bit more first and play a much more conservative and tight style next time I sit at 6max table.
You do get a better feel for your opponents style though. After a few rounds you really see who's playing from all positions, who's never raising, who's folding to pressure etc. On the other hand it's a lot more swingy and you're put in marginal situations more often. It was fun though:)

Shuffle up and deal!
