i think that pouncing on the games that go short is the best way to go. the biggest advantage for you here is that you know how to play short, and the rest of the table will not likely be making the right changes. playing at a six max table, i would assume that most of the players have some sort of clue about short play. i am not saying that they will be any good, but they will have a better clue than the full tablers will.

the 5/10 games at party are swimming with sharks, from what i understand. there must be a bunch of fishes to keep everyone eating well, but it seems like a tough jump to make until you are really confident in your shorthanded game, and you need a pretty good sized bankroll to take the swings. plus, tp might take back all the money he has donated to the rest of the site from you.

the shorthanded game forum on 2+2 probably has the best shorthanded info out there. i would definitely take a look there to bone up on your shorthanded play.

I do love the shorthanded 5/10 games at Party. Killed them more than any other game/limit last year - by a lot. With that said, I've moved to full ring lately because I want to see if they can be just as or even more profitable. Hard to say so far, but there seems to be potential there - especially when you factor in the play at the BBJ tables. I got killed there last night (down like 30+ BBs in 100ish hands!) by ridiculous suckouts - AA, KK, QQ lose three in a row for me - but in the long run, the guys playing their 62s and 97s chasing that BBJ are going to pay me a fortune...
