I recently posted a thread stating how playing multiple tables and, as someone in the comments put it, spreading the risk over several games, makes me much less likely to tilt than if I was playing one. Makes sense to me.
However, when I'm playing four/five (which I don't often do because...) my post-flop game is completely automated, as ABC as you can imagine. Obviously both pre-flop and post-flop skills are vital to general success in poker, but the above had me thinking.
How much value could you expect to realise by playing four/five or even more tables at once, micro / low stakes, and playing purely ABC poker? The idea being you sacrifice any real creative play on the flop, turn and river when trying to keep up with that many tables. Or lets say you can handle four / five with no problem at all, in that case make it ten!
Basically:
Volume + ABC poker > Fewer Tables + 100% focus?
