I don't really like to go into my pre flop strategies, because I may play you some day.
but, you've really got to loosen up in a 6 handed game. For instance, one of my requirements is that I'll play a hand if the cards add up to 20 (in a 10 man game).
In a short handed game, I'll play cards when they're both an 8 or better. I'll also raise in late position with hands like Q5 suited, and I'll even play Jack suited, both hands I would fold without hesitation in full games. If you have an Ace in these games, a raise is not a bad play, even if you have a poor kicker and you're offsuit.
Also, you need to follow preflop aggression with post flop aggression. So, say you raise on the button with Ace 8 offsuit and the flop comes K-7-2.
If they check around to you on the flop you need to bet out. Be aggressive.
