When I multi-table, I like to play 4 tables because I like to get a "feel" for the tables and get good reads on players. I seem to have decent results doing it this way.
But lately, I have been thinking that I may be missing out on some profit potential by not playing more tables. I've tried 5 & 6 tables a few times, but it seems like I just play "robot" style poker with no table feel. I didn't feel like I could make money doing that, but I could be wrong. I've seen guys like Zach and Chuck play 12 tables and they seem to be doing the robot thing, but making money at it.
So here's my questions for the heavy multi-tablers here:
- Where is YOUR "feel VS robot" threshold for tables (mine's 4)?
- Do you feel like you still make more money playing robot-style on many tables VS fewer tables with feel? Or would it be about the same profit for you playing either but less variance playing more tables?
- Is it tough to switch from playing multi-table style poker to single-table tougher games like CC events?
- How often does your timer run out on some tables when you are tied up with a big hand requiring extra thought time on one table? How often do the other players rag on you in the chatbox for this? How concerned are you when this happens?
Feel free to add anything else I didn't cover. Cheers.
