Would you rather play with a full table or an empty one?

depends a lot on the mood for me, but i always find myself thinking about risk management first. with a full table, you get way fewer hands per hour but get to pick up more info from how people play, plus the pots are bigger and there’s more margin for error. on the other hand, sitting down at an empty table or with just one or two people, everything moves way faster, but you’ve got to keep sharp since the blinds come around quick and things get swingy.

does anyone here prefer the speed and heads-up aspect over the slower, info-rich grind of a full table? curious how you weigh the tradeoff, especially if you’re into steady profit rather than just chasing the action.
