Is it advisable for me not to play more than one tournament online at the same time? What do you think?

You can easely play at least 2 tournaments at the same time if they are 9 max.

It all depends on the type of tourneys you enter. I find if I enter two or more tourneys my games start to get mixed up

It depends on your bankroll and your decision-making ability, turbo and regular tournaments are quite easy to play 2 screens.

Pretty easy to play more than one simultaneous, just make sure to bad beats and losses in one don't affect the other. Four tables at the same time to me is easy to handle, if you have a big screen.... better.

I do not really like playing multiple tournaments at the same time because you get distracted with several hands and can waver in a relatively easy hand.

Some factors can influence the number of simultaneous tournaments:

Some zoom?
Some turbo or hyper?

I play at most four tables at a time, but I have decreased in sessions to 3 or even 2

Sould be your choice. If you feel comfortable with two or more at the time go for it. I can play two tables at time and i don't think its effecting my game

It depends on if you can split your concentration between multiple tournaments. For me playing multiple tournaments at the same time keeps my mind busy so I don't get bored and start playing hands I shouldn't.

Only 1

I catch myself playing at 4 or more tables sometimes. It is a bad idea if you are trying to build a bankroll. I know I should only play one and today was perfect example. I spent 4+ hours playing two different freerolls. I won dollars on BetOnline and 1.55 on ACR. I had BetOnline up to 20$. Next thing I knew I had a cash table, an 11$ sit no go and 2 MTT's. I was rebuying and adding on. Wrong wrong wrong. One table is the best way to play a solid game.

You should start with one table. If you regularly find yourself in the prizes or for the final table - open two. If you're dealing with two tables - open the third. If you feel that you can't focus on more than one - you play one table. Many people can't concentrate on more than one table, prefer to study opponents, count the stacks, evaluate spectr, but when they open the second table, their attention is scattered and they lose.

Now I'm playing three freerolls for pokerstars, like nothing, it's normal, a bit nearly convenient, but I'm going to get used to it!

I normally do it. It all simply depends on how well you can multitask and how wide your concentration span is. What i do to help is to make notes on players at both tables so i wouldnt have to focus to hard on the table play. But i have been doing it for somewhile now and have been managing

Usually play one game. More than one takes too much attention. I like to observe game not just standard moves.

This is purely individual. If you recently started playing poker, then I would not advise you to start playing several tables at once, first you need to learn how to play well at the same table, and only then move to 2 tables or more. The more serious your approach to a certain tournament, the more you should focus on it.
But a larger number of tables per session gives more chance of getting into prizes and you get more experience.

If you are a new player and do not have a refined standard strategy in place then you should play less tables. I would suggest only playing 2 tables max if you are not accustomed to playing multiple tables. It is definitely advantageous to play in less table because you will end up getting info on your opponents when you spend a lot of time watching their style of play.

Just do what thinks works best for you.

totally agree with you! lots of tables scatter the game at all yields no results!
