Pocket sixes in no limit hold'em can be a tricky hand to play, as it falls in the middle range of pocket pairs. I find that people are very confused about the best way to play small pocket pairs like sixes profitably. Here are some general rules of thumb to follow:
1. Position is crucial: Your position at the table plays a significant role in how you should play pocket sixes. If you are in early position in a full ring game that is 8 or 9 handed, it's generally better to fold them since you don't want to risk too much money playing out of position. There are far too many people left to act who can wake up with hands that have you dominated. And even if they have a hand you are flipping with like overcards it will be incredibly difficult to realize your equity playing out of position.
In middle or late position, you can play them if the action has folded to you. You always want to enter the pot with a raise with this and all other playable hands when the action has folded to you. The one spot you can just call with your pocket sixes is on the button. You are guaranteed to be last to act post flop and can often take pots even if you don’t hit your set or the board has over cards when it is checked to you.
2. Look for value: Pocket sixes are not a premium hand, so you need to look for opportunities to get value from them. One way to do this is by playing them in multi-way pots where you can potentially hit a set and win a big pot. This will be primarily by just calling with them on the button and occasionally on the big blind. When you play pocket sixes multi-way like this you are essentially set mining. This means it’s very important that the other players in the hand have deep stacks along with your own stack. To insure you can play this hand profitably make sure the effective stacks are at least 15 times the amount of money you have to call to see the flop.
3. Consider the table dynamics: The way your opponents are playing can affect your decision to play pocket sixes. If your opponents are playing tight like in some early morning live cash games or online, you may want to try to steal blinds or make a small raise to see a cheap flop. If they are playing loose and aggressive, it might be better to fold and wait for a better spot unless you are in position which great implied odds to try and hit a set as mentioned before.
4. Pay attention to stack sizes: Your stack size and your opponents' stack sizes can also play a role in how you play pocket sixes especially in a tournament setting. If you have a short stack, it might be better to shove all-in pre-flop to avoid playing out of position post-flop. If it folds to you in late position and you only have 15 big blinds then shoving all in is likely the best play. On the other hand If your opponents have short stacks and you are in late position, you can use your pocket sixes to put pressure on them and try to steal their blinds by making small raises.
5. Be prepared to fold: As with any hand, it's important to be prepared to fold pocket sixes if the situation warrants it. If you face a big raise or re-raise, or if the flop doesn't bring any help, it's better to cut your losses and move on to the next hand.
Pocket sixes can be a challenging hand to play in no limit hold'em, but with the right approach, you can turn them into a profitable hand. Remember to consider your position, look for value, pay attention to table dynamics and stack sizes, and be prepared to fold when necessary. By following these guidelines, you'll be able to make the most of your pocket sixes and increase your chances of winning at the poker table.
