Re: Multi-Tabling vs. Improving Your Game
[ QUOTE ]
Serious question: How many tables can you play at once and still improve your poker game?

I would guess this varies from player to player.

If 4 tables makes for a nice hourly rate, but prevents me from improving as much as I could, what should I do?

This is something I do, but I don't know if it works for other people: I multitable just because I get bored with only a table (or two), but I generally pick the most interesting table and really try to watch the hands on that table. Often the 'feature table' will be the one that's full of good players. Instead of moving tables when the fish leave like I usually do, sometimes I'll stick around and play a bit just to learn, especially if a couple of my opponents really impress me.
Another way that I'll do the 'feature table' thing is to play up a level on a single table. For about 3 months last year, I always played 3 tables at one level and 1 table at the next level up. I'm of the opinion that it really helped my game.
