Why only 6 seats

New here so take it easy, Why are all tables 6 seats. I am really struggling to adapt from 9/10 to 6.
This isn't a complaint just an observation from a newbie struggling to adapt, 6 handed to me is too reliant on luck.
Also is there anything in the pipeline for other poker variations, I know it all depends on traffic but surely there must be enuff people here to get something going.
Any advice on adapting from 9/10 to 6 seats would be appreciated.
many thx

Six seat tables are the USP of Sky Poker. I feel it promotes more interaction between players, with - often - a more family-friendly atmosphere. It can take a while to adapt from full rings games on other sites, but I think once you do, you will appreciate the finer points and the skill that goes along with it.
As for other poker variations... hold em is the most popular form of poker across the world and as such is the variant that Sky Poker highlights. There are a few omaha tables, and this number is growing. I am sure if those in control of these things thought that stud or draw or razz or even snap was to bring in many new players, these would be added.
Enjoy your time here.
I don't do a lot NLH ring mainly tournies and i'm finding it difficult adjustin
Perhaps that's why other sites and pundits see Sky as soft because players have adapted to play this way I don't rightly know, what I do know is that most on this site now prefer the 6 handed game including myself. Even when I visit the other sites I look for the 6max games in tours and cash and both are becoming more popular elsewhere.
Having said this I have no problem with 8/9 handed tours and would play them on sky as I have the ofordable on occasion when I wanted a nice relaxing game but I can soon find myself getting bored and playing sub-optimally.
Advice...play low stakes tours to get used to it and read many of the very informative diaries in the poker chat secton of the lobby.
Welcome and gl at the tables.
