I was contemplating the idea of playing 4-6 tables at once, however it seems a bit scary to me! I was wondering if anyone had any tips or things they do that helps them 4-6 table more effectively. I'm thinking this requires a TAG play? Also what layout style do you find the most effective? Minimize, Dual monitor, 4 across land scape?

Thanks in advance!

Not goot for tournies either. I have had bad experiences and turbo's with 4 tables at once with a few players left.

Play the first table, after you get use to the players, add another table... then add another, before you know, you're playing 4+ tables. PAHUD, pokertracker helps a little. Of course, the good old notes taking is important, when you'll calling off your whole stack.

If you have a 19" monitor, resolution 1600x1280, I think it'll fit 4 tables just nicely. Anything more, you'll need a dual monitor setup.

I have another question about multi-tabling I have been meaning to ask you folks... Do you have fun multi-tabling? I tried it for a few sessions only and just hated it. I found myself relying too much on player stats instead of observing their play. I found it way too mechanical... I just couldn't get comfortable with it and found I wasn't having fun so gave up on it.

I agree, the best way to learn to multi-table well is a gradual build up. Learn to play one table well then add your second, third, etc. You can't successfully jump right in to 6 tabling, it doesn't work that way.

Yep, four tables fit perfectly on my monitor @ 1600x1200.
