Yesterday I went to try to play in three tables of different tournaments, surprises me. It leaves faster than expected from the tables. rsrsrs, summing up concentrating on a single table and hand ends up being better always. Who much wants little has.:icon_stud

I play at the second table to get distracted if I'm tired of a long tournament game. Usually this is spin and go. And, if my state of health is OK, then I do not use the second or third table. It all depends on the situation.

I think before playing more than one table it is necessary to learn to play in one.

Tournaments are qualitative so playing more than 3 at once is a misuse of money

For some, playing only one to two tables can be very boring but for others it can get too hectic playing more than a few tables.

This. When playing low stakes SnGs or DoNs
I often get 3 or more going at a time.
Since I'm folding more than I'm playing, it isn't very hectic at all.
CC League games however take all the concentration I can muster and then some 😁

When I played NLHE, I used to play 12 tables at $100 cash tables. It was decently profitable.

Now that I play PLO, I'd rather keep it at 4 tables or so.

Just because you are not able to do something does not mean others can't.

It depends on your skill set - you obviously don't have the right skills to be able to do it. But many people can do it quite successfully.

When I could play at pokerstars I played up to 12 tables - it was too many. I found my zone was best with 4-6 tables.

4 Tables feels right to me. Takes a bit of getting used to but after a while it becomes natural. If you are having trouble with only 3 tables maybe your range is too wide?.

I can't laugh on Lex or BParis though I can easily cry on myself.

Only play the number of tables you feel comfortable with, that doesn't mean multitabling is not good or profitable.

I usually play till two MTT, and rarely till four tables. I think that you must be able to watch the game, so that to watch the developement of hands and of course the maths of the game. I f you go to play more it starts to be like a lotto or gambling!

The good ones are too busy clicking and counting their winnings to laugh back at you! :D

Playing more tables when you are not an experienced player is not a good thing - when you are an experienced winning player, however, the more you play the more you win.

Good luck to you! :D

I multi-table cash games all the time, but try not to do it with tourneys because the parameters of each are so different. Plus, I don't play a lot of tournaments anyway.

I find that my first decision is usually best, so I do not find multitabling stressful.
Mostly, it depends on how focused I am willing to be at any given moment in time and how important the tournament(s) is/are to me.

there is such a saying - do not look for problems on other tables, and the bankroll will not be deflated as a ball

Maybe you're right, because concestration and so on, and what will you do if you have the opportunity to play perspective freerolls and start them simultaneously?
