View Full Version : Do fish multitable?
Right now at 2:30 AM pacific time all ten of my tables have duplicate players on them ( the same player on at least two of my tables ). Two separate players are each sharing four different tables with me. I can spot other players sharing 2+ tables with me as well. Are all of them winning SNG players?

losing players sometimes do play 2 and 3 tables at a time. i think it reduces the boredom for them. four or more tables and the player is likely good.
Well here's how it ended:
Places: 7, 4, 4, 5, 6, 5, 2, 1, 4, 1
4 finishes on the bubble hurts.
At the final 3 at one table, my two opponents ended up being one player that was at 4 of my tables and another player that was at 2 of my tables. This table ended in a double KO with 66 eliminating TT and AA. This guy that was at 4 of my tables won here and actually knocked me out of another table.
While finishing that table, I ended up HU against the guy from the first ITM table that was at two of my tables and beat him.
A lot of multitable metagame and crosstable chat was going on.

Four? I count three. 5-handed is not the bubble. For the 2389283928329th time
Sorry, it's late. It would be five anyway if you counted 5-handed. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Have definely seen some multitablers on the stars turbos that I refuse to believe can be winning players.

The answer to this question depends on your definition of "fish." I play SnG's exclusively for a living now (for about 3 months)...but I've been multitabling SnG's ever since PE was banned back in July. When I first started multitabling SnG's...I basically sucked balls. Now, did I make ridiculous plays like push all-in with KT in Level 2 with 30xBB? No. But did I consistently miss bubble pushes, opportunities to bully, easy medium pair laydowns, obvious pot odds calls...yeah. Did that make me a fish? I don't know -- at this point, I love having players who play like I did then at my tables (obviously, I love having players worse than that more, but...I'm comfortable having a table full of "old me").
So...if you count the way I blithely played NLHE SnG's as though they were not much different than cash games as my being a fish...then yeah, I'd say fish multitable -- simply because I was. I was a slightly better than breakeven fish, but still a fish nonetheless.
If by fish you only mean awful players who make ridiculous plays that have no logic behind them and fundamentally mis-understand the relative values of starting hands, can't get away from losers, draw without anywhere close to proper odds, chase long-shots for all their chips, think they can put an opponent on exactly QJ of hearts preflop, etc. -- BIG fish...then I'd say vey few of those players are playing 4+ at a time.
But very clearly, there are lots of slight long-term losers who multitable, and very slight (but still very exploitable) winners who multitable are quite prevalent, IMO.
The multitablers usually have pretty good stats (I use PA HUD). Yesterday I saw th2w0 and Valorous a lot. 2+2ers? /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I saw th2w0 at quite a few of my tables too. I noticed that he's prone to push any two from the SB starting level 4 though.
Anyone know if he's 2p2?

I'm just waiting for one of these fish stories to be about me.
I multi-table; therefore fish multi-table.
