In case anyone hasn't seen, Stars now has 6-max tables!!
6-max PLO is so much better than full-ring IMO.

How does SH PLO vary from Full Ring PLO games?
I know hand values go up and you can be looser preflop.Anything else?

My reasons for preferring 6-max:
1) More hands per hour - simple enough(ACTIOOOON!!))
2) Full ring tends to see more players taking a flop and it becomes necessary to play nuts or nut draws
3) You can play position and call-bluff a lot more in 3-handed or heads-up pots
4) The aggression factor increases, and so the better player can really work on getting paid more, as well as taking bigger 'orphans'
5) 6 handed you can work out each opponent more accurately and not worry about the cards as much.
Re-reading what I just wrote, some of the points are kind of saying the same thing, just in a different way. Oh well, you get the idea...
