Respect to those who 8-table regularly..
 

I just tried it in the $11's (well, first 7 tables then 8) and bloody hell, it's hard. still 7 ITM finishes (5 2nd, 2 3rd) isn't a bad start. Just so hard to keep track of the constant 'bings' and moving your mouse all over the shop.

I think I need a lie-down now.

I tell you, having played Warcraft3 at a high level for two years really helps with your mousespeed and ability to see and analyze things quickly.

Tough at 1st, easy after a while.
2 tabling used to be tough for me. Now I can 8 table in my sleep. But I am usually not ITM 7 out of 8. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

It was tough at first now a breeze, I first start off 4 tabling check email and all other crap I gotta do since 4 is slow as anything. I remember first trying 4 tables and it being tough. With time becomes second nature.

I'm not 8-tabling yet, but my preparations include programming of playing without mouse moving. I have plenty of buttons (for calling, folding, changing table) and my wheel moves in 4 directions (for raising). I should be able to 20-table when it's done. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Did you read my mind? I was going to write something to do this in an AutoHotKey script.

Yes, I read minds in my free time. Good for my poker career.
