Not sure if this is the right forum, but it seems like it might be. I am just curious about how many tables can be played or observed on dialup without the connection becoming a bottleneck. I have cable now, but I am considering getting a dialup connection as a backup and for some datamining. I am primarily interested in Party Poker, and possibly the ex-party skins. So what is your max? is 10 doable or is that pushing it?

Thanks.

As long as the connection is stable, that shouldn't be a problem. Playing poker requires almost no bandwidth. You might experience slow lobbies and such, but the actual playing should be fine.

Orca is right, its the lobbies that are killers. Now that you can open 4 or 10 tables off of one lobby you should be fine.
