4-tabling continual SNG's while 4-tabling 1/2 limit.

I am so hooked. Not even funny.

Sounds about as fun as grinding nails on a chalkboard!

My goal is to be 8tabling by the end of the summer. Just need a second monitor. 4tabling has become boring.

I would advise you to make moving up in limits your goal. Massive multi-tabling can really kill your game development.

I think the poster plays SNG. And in SNGs, I find that playing more tables doesn't hurt my skill development (although I lose some reads, but this is less important). I play 4 just as well as 1, and I'll be playing 8 soon.

Ew, SNG's = yuck, 1/2 limit = MUCH more yuck. But nh, I wish I had the two monitors to 8 table.

Basically. I'm hoping with 8 I'll actually be more focused...if that makes any sense. SNGing is so robotic.

Ah, I take back what I said then. I don't play SNG's and can't really comment on how multi-tabling affects one's play.

My mistake.

Yea, I don't want to give anyone the idea that I'm 8-tabling cash games or SNG's. I'm mixing in 4 tables of both. It keeps my interest fresh and the action is faster paced.

When my roll becomes adequate, I will move up to 2/4. Same goes for moving up to $22 SNG's. But I want to play 200 of the $11's first.

Everything I've read poker-related by you tells me this will be a breeze for you. Good luck.

Ok, the steps to 8 tabling....

1. Have two monitors, that's easy.

2. Do you do 4 tables at two different party skins? I haven't signed up at any other Party skins other than Party itself. Managing cash on two differnet accounts with two different email addresses, etc. sounds like a pain.

I use the same email address for my Party accounts, and keep money in 3 of them, it's not that hard...

No, I only have an Empire account. When the time comes I might dabble a bit in Eurobet (because they have a nice rakeback system where bonuses don't cut in).

SNG's are on Stars. I've tried the SNG structures on both, and while I imagine the Empire SNG's are more +EV wise because they run faster, I'm mnore confident in my play in the Stars ones. Results have been telling.

And thanks Kyro.
