What is your best advice for someone who plays on multi tables at a time. I usually play 4 tables at a time but I have played as many as 6 tables at a time between two different sites.

If you play 4 or more tables at once, you are not a beginner, and any advice that you can give what you know, play good cards and good projects. In order afiionados not many players play with lots of tables. and win over all ..

The main advice is to pay attention on your bankroll graph. If you see it decreasing, then it is a good idea to step back and play a little less tables

Whatever ends up with nothing much

Whatever ends up with nothing much , poker requires concentration and reading the opponent participating in various tables is impossible to focus on any game

I go deep in a lot of tournaments I play usually tournaments I wouldn't attempt to multi play for ring games. I have my little system where in early tournament I try to get my chips stacked and then go to the next table if I'm short stacked and stack it too and repeat. In poker I find myself doing a lot of folding waiting for a decent hand to play sometimes so I try to secure a good stack on all my tables. I play the Big and Small blinds on all games and button of course. The freerolls I play are like a rodeo in early tournament play. It gets serious when the blinds get higher and I go deeper which usually I do make it deep in most tournaments I play. I have been at more then one final table at a time but on that site NLOP only top 3-4 pay and final table is usually 6 players.

buy two monitor find a good video card with eyefinite function
try to find standing mounts
and try to find some software.

it depends on how much you want to spend on building this set of hardware.

I would say the ideal is 4. Above it, it takes away our reading ability to both opponent and table.

Add one table at a time when you feel that you are able to follow the games easily. One gambler playing same time in 27 tables sng 45 - 180 and other gambler 25! 6 max NL. :eek:

That is a lot of games in one day.

Me too but he is playing way more games then I can handle
just gradually add tables as you get more comfortable
. That is good advise very true

4 games is my ideal amount of tables too

. You should do what your most comfortable with even if it is one table.

That is what I want is a two monitor set up it will be perfect. I'm gonna look into it on YouTube

Multitabling 4 has been ideal for me in the past. I have thought about buying a second monitor so possibly multi table more at once and be able to see all the action. Is a higher power computer/video card absolutely necessary in order to run dual monitors, or will integrated Intel HD graphics be enough? I figured it wouldn't be very demanding on the computer or graphics, but I'm no computer wiz.

I can play on 4-6 tables in the same time. If there more, I begin lose concentration. It's very hard to wach many games. But some players can play much more. Good to them.

Only best hands its a good advice but in the last tables you gonna have to pick some attention on the other players and play some normal hands also!

if just two monitor it is easy.
control panel, display, then change the display setting
it shows the two monitor set up.
besides if buy two monitor exactly the same type, you don't even need a mounts to hold them, just put them on your desk.

Thanks for the tips I definitely want to try but they will be two different monitors for sure. I'm putting them both on my desk
