Multi tabling, how many tables can you handle?

How many tables can you play at the same time? I play up to 6, but after 3 I see myself making mistakes.

I'm not really that good at multitabling. I can handle 2, but usually just play one.

Never tried multi-tabling. I think I'd have enough trouble with one table :D

Hi.
Usually, I play two or three tables at a time. If there are more than 3 tables I start making mistakes.
Good luck.

6 tables is maximum I can handle, but I prefer 3-4.
I can take more but it might start to affect my performance.

I think it depends if I'm only playing NLH or if I'm mixing with PLO or PLO8. If it's only one type of game, I can play 6 tables at the same time, but I prefer to play 4 at maximum because with that amount I don't lose focus on the game and don't make silly mistakes.

I used to play 4 tables,but that was too much for me because it was hard to stay focused so nowadays I play one or two and that's more than enough for me.

I don't understand how you can play at multiple tables.Sometimes I play for two.But I only won once from both tables.I'm getting nervous.I make ill-considered moves.And I learned one rule:if you want to lose, play at multiple tables..If you want to win then choose one game.

If I want to be really focused (like being Deep in big mtt) , I play 3 tables max. If not, 4-6 tables

Efficiently 2 tables , 4 is maximum , but better if 1 or 2 of them are freerolls or games of no importance , so I ccan play them without caring so much , without following the action at the table :) So 2 tables with serious games , and one or two less important or just freerolls or cyclone tables nowadays :)

I usually play just one table as i like to concentrate on the game. I can comfortably play two and occasionally i have done 3 but this is my maximum and at 3 my game is already getting worse.

I sometimes play quite a few especially on Saturdays when lots of tourney start at about same time. If all tables are holdem I think I play not too bad with 3 but if more than that it is a struggle. If there is a table with another variant then it can be extremely challenging.

Unfortunately it's only 8, but I can totally focus on it. Maybe if I had a holdem manager I would try more.:rolleyes:

I'm not really that good at multitabling. I can handle 2, but usually just play one.

I'm glad you found your sweet spot. I still haven't found mine. I've played up to four tables before. When I'm alert I can manage all four. That said, 2 is easier to handle and my results are better when I have 1 tourney I'm focusing on.

The more tables you play, the more opportunities you'll have to hit your range hands. The tradeoff, however, is that you won't realize the tendencies of the players at your table. Does Player A always fold to three bets? Does Player C fold the small blind when they're short stacked?

There are benefits and detriments to multi-tabling.

I usually only play 2 tables max. I like to pay attention to what people are doing, and place ranges on people when not in hand.

2 tables max for me

I recently started playing poker and only play 2 tables because I try to keep track of my opponents :)
