THE SWEET SPOT

Hi guys. I personally find that the maximum number of tables I can handle without sacrificing my game integrity is 4. Any more than that and my red line just skydives! I think this is because I need those extra few seconds in between hands to make good decisions. So I think my multitabling sweet spot is 4 tables. What's yours?

Only 1 table for me, small brain I guess.

One at a time. Anymore comprises my game. But to you players that play several at a time good luck to you. I do hate waiting for you to make your play though.

I feel comfortable with 2-4 tables.When they become more I become unconcentrated somehow. Well, sometimes it happens, because I was registered to many tourney. But I really like less for my concentration.

No more than 2 for me at this stage.

Back when I first started playing seriously online,( 2003 ), I would play 8 Limit tables at once sometimes, but of course Limit poker doesn't require the focus on how your opponents are playing that No Limit does. I don't like playing more than three, two if I'm on high-action tables. I'll occasionally open a fourth if things are very slow, or one of the tables looks like it's collapsing.

Interesting. I've been known to experiment with 5-6 tables if the action is slow too but I just feel that 4 is perfect for Cash games. When I'm 4-tabling SNGs, I start off with two turbos and play them for 20 mins. This puts them at about Level 4/5 then I start 2 more to complete the 4. That way I can focus on the endgame stage on the first 2 while the others are still warming up.

One maximum two...

I like 3-4 tables, any less and I get distracted way too easy, any more and I occasionally miss hands which is obviously a bad idea. I would say that it is a good idea to push outside your comfort zone with this dynamic as most professionals do anywhere from 4-8 at a time.

I usually only play 1 table-sometimes 2 tables - more tables are already getting harder to play

Hello, okay how many tables you're playing in parallel. This if we do not have games Zoom. I like game with 4 tables max. As you said just to make good decisions. Obviously playing fewer tables is more concentration game. regards

You mean this red line or what about ?? Here is my red line in HUD

I would agree. For me, you can have them easily spaced out on your screen, and I can still focus easily enough on all 4 at once. Adding any more and it feels like too much clutter, and that I at least sometimes could be rushing a decision.

Yes that's the one (Red Line image)

I keep them close together so that my eyes don't have to dart around the screen too much.

I also usually play on four tables. If I need to play five or six tables, in such cases it's difficult for me to focus on the process of the game. Good luck.

Yeah 4 just really seems like the perfect amount but of course that depends on the person. I do ok with 6 active tables but my winrate increases when I drop to 4. I've also tried playing 9 and 12 tables etc filling my TV screen, and once even tried 16. But there is so much going on with that volume that I become a passive ABC robot and my bankroll goes into freefall. Clicking the check, fold and call buttons constantly just so the tables 'Leave me alone' ... cause raising decisions need much more attention. Nightmare. I honestly don't know how those 24x Supernova Sickos can manage their volume. If you can do it, then good for you guys. I'm 4x all the way.

in most cases I play four tables !!! probably I could play more tables but I have a small monitor !!!

I feel comfortable up to 2-3 tables. I tried a times 4-5, but I stopped doing juggling dishes like those circus performers and got lost all over. I think it's everyone's personal and also training. The trick is to always play the same type of game, so you do not have to stop to think. Set a fixed behavior pattern and when you hit the eye on the cards you already know what you're going to do.

Mine is 2 after that I have a hard time paying attention to the ever changing players and the way they play

Just one, to observe the players better.
