Also because so many cards are dealt, the card removal effect is stronger; if all early position players have folded, it is much more likely the players in the blinds have aces in their hands, again making it harder to steal the blinds.
The range I will play on the first round in LHE, draw games, and even in stud, changed quite a bit depending on how many players are left to act; in FLO8 it changes very little.
Hmm. Thank you for presenting the opposite side of the argument. Im not sure I agree with all of your points, but really I am talking about UTG first to act ranges among 5-9 players.
Can you reformulate your thoughts regarding the UTG and EP1 seats?
Thank you.
