So I always play Multiple tables , The key is that I play 1 tourney I actually care about and the rest are just fillers because I hate waiting on people. Im ADHD so I get board easily so if my tourney table is slow and everyone is taking forever to make a decision I actually start to play worse. So i'll bump in a couple freerolls and Im pretty much just playing any decently decent hand in those to bypass time, If I get busted out of those I don't care. It actually helps me focus more on my main tourney

I've been play poker a little over 2 months. I could not imagine playing more than one table before but now I can comfortably play 2 tables. A little while ago I tried to play 3 but I missed a quads (KKKK)...
I still cannot imagine playing more than 3 tables. but I guess gradually we can get used to it.

It is logical. The concentration is dispersed among all the tables. The more tables you play at the same time, the worse the performance will be. I personally play in one or two tables.

I do not play many tables at the same time for the same reason. Maximum 3-4 tables. Develop a strategy and rules for your actions at the start of the tournament and follow them strictly. And when you move closer to the final table, then you can already look at the players, their actions, etc. Or install a program for collecting statistics. It seems that there are such permissible programs.

As I know to play many tables you must use special programs that helps you to analise your opponents game... but for me I need to follow & to watch every opponent's move to make a pisture about him ... so that's why I play only 1-2 tables.)

My computer screen size dictates how many games I can play at one time, it also then depends upon the number of games that are actually available since most the games I play are free rolls. Cash games, in which I've got an investment in, will normally be only one or two at a time. My theory is that with freerolls you're off playing more in order to try to win more and can't win if you're not in the game.

When I play more then one table my quality of playing is getting worse, I make many mistakes, I cannow concentrate and remember the actions of players// so... HOW CAN YOU DO IT??:confused::confused: or the actions of other players are not important? the most important thing is our own actions??? how do many people play 4, 8, 16 tables AT THE SAME TIME?????:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:


I advise you to open only two tables and when you increase your bankroll you can open other tables, but there is an option of the label of the colors that allows you to mark the players for example an aggressive player you mark it in red, a bluffing player marks it in yellow so you do not lose concentration and good luck to you :)

I know it's very hard, but use any HUD, it will help a lot and get your playing much better

I like playing at least 2. One tournament and one cash game. The cash game is usually zoom play so there is never a break in the action. Sometimes I will play 4 tables. Cause it fits nicely on the screen so you can see all the action. [emoji812]️

A few nights ago I played on two tables. One was omaha and the other was no limit holdem zoom, both tournaments. I found it a real challenge as the games are both fast but very different. I think two is my limit.

many tables

It seems to me that only experienced players can play at many tables at a time, it is difficult for a beginner to navigate. It will not be possible to follow the game qualitatively, to evaluate opponents, because it is very important for a good result.

Three table - tops. Then it is impossible to follow the game properly. And at all two - perfectly. It is possible for players to follow, and will not cause much entertainment.

Usually when I play at four tables, I try to control only the most important table for me

I tried to increase to 6 screens on weekends and this did not hurt my game, but I've been studying a bit more equilab and I'm going back to playing 4 screens this week in the SNG.
I believe this is the way

X Tables

The more tables that I play the lower the quality is at each table. You can't play a lot of tables and see every thing that is going on. I just play the cards in front of me like I just sat down at each table. I play straight math poker at each table with very little individual player info. Good luck !

In April last year I commented on playing 6 screens, and that was far from the usual. Today I play six screens perfectly !!!!
