Default Multi-tabling STTs.

Last night I was playing in two STTs simultaneously on Full Tilt. It's a piece of cake in the early going, but both tables came down to heads up at the same time, and it was getting difficult to keep ahead of them. I wound up falling behind a bit in the Hold Em before I finished off the Razz tourney allowing me to concentrate better on the Hold Em. How do the people who play in 4 or more STTs at the same time handle this situation?

Ask ZeeJustin how he plays 12 at a time if you think 2 is bad. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

I find that I do much better if I start 4 SNGs at the same time. Usually they advance at roughly the same pace and it helps me adjust my strategy accordingly.

However at times you will get short handed at all the tables and it gets a little crazy. Last night I was playing heads up on two tables and 4 seated on the other 2.

Don't play Razz on one table and Holdem on the other. That's like juggling a running chainsaw, bowling ball, and a marble.

I 8-table $22's. It took about a week to get myself adjusted and now it's not hard at all. Every time you make the jump to a higher number of tables it's going to be hectic at first but after you get used to it it'll be cake. The key is that you have to know what you're going to do in every situation without having to stop and think about it.

Could've been worse. I could have been multi-tabling razz and 7 card stud. That would have really been a serious miscalculation.
