hey just wondering how do people multitable on one monitor. I find it hard to play more then 6 at a time, any tips for managing all the tables on one screen would be a huge help, cheers.

I think a lot of people never play more than 4 tables, so they all fit on one screen.

I've seen other people just click on whatever is blinking at bottom of screen, but that wouldn't work for me. I like to follow the action as much as possible even if I'm not in it.

theres a new partypoker beta that allows you to make the tables smaller (i think you can fit 9 on a screen), and also there's a program called Multi-Table Helper (MTH) which you can read about on this forum that helps manage playing a lot of tables at once

I 6 tabled Stars during my business trip to Thailand Cambodia and Vietnam (trip report will maybe follow) on a 1024 monitor. It can be done but you have to play a very formualic style at the first 4 levels so that you can observe one table on the bubble.

Well, that was my theory. Practically, it was horrible. Compared with my usual 4-tabling on my fp2001 at home I estimate my ROI loss to about 10 %age pints.

Easy to play 4 full sized partys or normal stars/cryptologics on a 1600x1200 monitor...
I tend to like to play six, but i have two screens

Try MTH if you can't fit them all on the screen without overlap, and/or you want to play more then 4.....

Best of luck anyway

I use it to 10 table, and have had no problems with it. It is definately the best way.
