On Thursday night, I got to play 37 hands of heads up poker at the end of the session. My opponent decided to quit when he couldn't make a dent in my stack. I was up a small amount during that stretch - $3,664. Though I really enjoy playing heads up poker, that's not where I make my money in cash games. I decided to aggregate my cash game deltas by table size to see where my profit comes from. The results surprised me a bit:
2 $-36,947 ( 844)
3 $-29,860 ( 1,696)
4 $-351,590 ( 2,983)
5 $335,172 ( 4,854)
6 $330,541 ( 6,502)
7 $1,325,475 ( 9,831)
8 $2,117,035 ( 13,699)
9 $2,486,170 ( 10,668)
The numbers in parentheses are the number of hands played at that table size. It's very clear that the more players at the table there are, the more profit I make. I really expected my sweet spot to be at the 7 player data point, but the clear winner is a full ring of 9 players. Go figure! :-)
