Hi SoulCracker and welcome to Cardschat. Two questions. How long have you been playing online, and at what stakes are you now playing at? For new players one table would be best, but here and there open another table and play about 30 or 45 minutes and then close one of the tables. The stakes I'm playing at is what I go by to play more or less tables. Like if I'm playing 5nl I can play more tables because there is not a lot of money at stake, but if I'm playing at 25nl, I won't play but 1 or 2 because I don't want to make some big mistake that could cost me my buyin. In other words, the more tables you play, the faster things are going to be moving and mistakes are easy to make. Like yesterday I was playing 3 tables, and on one it was my play and I thought the bet was $0.25 and it was $2.50. I hope that helps you some. GL to you
