View Full Version : On the issue of Multi-Tabling...

11-24-2005, 06:51 PM
Since I've been getting better with ABC poker recently on 25NL, I've been trying to keep as many as 10 tables going at once with PA Hud. I cannot notice a difference in my play. To me, I'm playing exactly as I would with 4 tables going. The thing is, I've been noticing a difference in my bankroll. My sessions have either lost me a little bit of money or I've broken even (sessions usually last me around 2-3 hours). It's very frustrating and I don't know if it's because of variance or the bad play I've been making sub-consciously with so many tables going on at once. If I've played over 40,000 hands and feel moderatly confortable with ABC play, how many tables should I be playing at once to maximize my BB/100 ? Thanks for the responses.

Are you using PokerAce for free? Mine updated and kicked me off and now doesn't work worth a damn and I'm stuck with GT+.

It's all the individual.

I can only play 4 or 5. Some can play 16. Switch back to like 6 and see if you notice an improvement

If you're losing money or breaking even on party25nl you're doing something wrong, try cutting down on tables

I like and have no desire to go over 4 tables....however this is 6 max....if I was playing full ring I think I would try a little over 6 tables. I assume your full ringing it?

I play optimally with 3, 6-max or full. But if the games are good I'll play 4, 5 if they're really juicy and reads don't matter much. You're "differences" that you're noticing may very well be short term variance. Don't worry about short run profits. The long run is a very long time.

I play 6max only, 4tables is no problem at all and I could easily do more if I had a higher resolution. But I like 4 tables because it gives me time to do other stuff at the same time, yet still is enough action to usually not become boring at all
