Multi-tabling question, how many are enough?
 
If you are getting rakeback from a site how important is it to play as many games as possible? I have multi-tabled 4 easily. But since i'm getting the rakeback i'm trying loading up on 6 or 7. Do i stand to make more in the long run playing more games? Especially with the extra rakeback for 2 or 3 more games beside the hourly for each game. Or is it conceiveable i could make less money playing too many games by making mistakes such as getting timed out with a winning hand. Or acting impulsively and making a bad play do to being more rushed.

What do you guys think?

keep adding tables until you feel like you cant handle any more.

But what determines not being able to handle anynmore? Should you never play more to where you get timed out on occasion? Or is being timed out once in while to be expected and still worth because of rakeback and more games meaning more games to earn more an hour.

you determine it. fwiw, if it got to the point that i was being timed out on tables, it probably meant i was well past the point of having to many tables up.

basically, play as may as you can without wanting to punch yourself in the cock and dont sweat it. micromanaging stuff like this is wasting braincells.

The problem is not so much in being rushed or timing out, as having reads on players and learning the texture of the tables. Seeing what has happened in previous hands is important.

why don't you focus more on playing better poker at limits you're comfortable with? You'd make much more from playing good poker than you will from getting rakeback.

Yes this was the other reason i asked the question kinda. I mean i'm not playing at limits i'm not cpomfortable with. In fact i'm playing smaller because i opne 6 or 7 games. But is it more wise to play6 higher and less games? Or is it more wise to continue the smaller extra games. With the smaller games the bankroll requirements are probably smaller specially with extra rakeback. But what would make more money? 4 of a higher limit or 7 of the smaller limit.

ok...

1 table = 3bb/100 = 1.8bb/hr
2 table = 2.5bb/100 = 3bb/hr
4 table = 2bb/100 = 4.8bb/hr
8 table = 1.25bb/100 = 6bb/hr
16 table = .75bb/100 = 7.2bb/hr
32 table = .45bb/100 = 8.64bb/hr
64 table = .2bb/100 = 7.68bb/hr

This is just an example, but if you were this person you should stop adding tables at your 32nd table.

Ok i'll try not to go over 32 thanks. And i was gonna buy that computer room at nasa so i could do 64. Good thing you let me know ahead of time! But seriously thanks for the info. Are those pretty accurate for most people or only if you're not timing out and making mistakes? So i should go for as many as humanely possible as long as i'm not timing out all the time right?
