My work place is 2 laptops + 1 desktop. 3 additional monitors 2x24 full hd and 1x19 square
5 monitors in total.
Playing poker on 2x24" + additional 15" screen of the laptop.
Poker isn't my main job, I'm graphical designer and programmer.
Tried to use bigger monitors, 32" screens aren't good for my work space, vertical dimensions are too large. Might switch to 24" wide or ultra wide monitors instead of regular HD.
I like playing 12 tables. During my work I usually play 9-12 tables at 24"+15". When work is done I can play at both 24" screens, having 6 tables at each monitor, which is the best setup.
I click and type really fast, faster than 150apm(actions per minute) so I'm not having problems during poker sessions combined with drawing and maybe even some chatting or posting things at different forums. Also listening or watching educational videos at the other laptop and operating machines using desktop PC... well actually machines are working 6-8 hours without interruption, i'm just watching the cameras if everything going smoothly.
I'm kind of shocked when I see that majority of my friends are playing
online poker sitting at just 1 table, to me it looks like the time has stopped there.So boring... When they observe my online
gambling together with all other things that I'm doing at the same time - they're getting tired of focusing on my decisions after 10 minutes of observing
My GF is always nervous when she's watching what i'm doing, she says that it looks like complete chaos, but by the end of the day job is done, poker was well played, lessons been learned, machines did some products.
P.S. Thinking about welding a chair with bicycle mechanism to perform excersises for legs during my time at the work desk.
Multitasking is a habbit like smoking cigarettes, it's terrible when you're trying it for the first time, but if you'll keep doing it - you will get used to it easily. Brain and body adopts to everything.
