hu, short handed vs multiway action

[Meistro]

What do you prefer? Obv. it really depends on the shoe, and I guess what you want is short bankrolled ploppies who like to leave after 5-10 hands. Me personally I like to play with one or two other players, esp. if they are not the types to play a shoe to the bitter end but I also really like heads up against the dealer. I do not like full tables.

Also, what do you think about people standing nearby and watching the game? Not back counters, but people in general? My usual approach now is to shoot them a dirty look so that they leave, because it makes me uncomfortable.

I don't like a lot of people coming or going because that slows the game down. I don't like crammed tables either because that slows the game down.

All in all, heads up play is the best. It's faster and I find it can be easier to count because there are fewer hands and therefore I don't have to "scan" the table to keep the count.
