I've often wondered if playing too many tables is bad for your win rate. I say this, because you're not able to concentrate on the tendencies of specific players when you're playing four tables, as much as when you're playing one table.
Ed Miller states in SSH:
"Every cent of your long-term profit playing poker come from exploiting your opponents' errors and predictable tendencies."
I'm wondering if I'm missing those "predictable tendencies" by playing four to five tables at once. I'm playing fairly "generically." Unless I spot consistent patterns at a particular table (a maniac who always raises, lots of calling stations, large frequency of cold calling, etc.), I tend to play "by the book." It's more difficult for me to spot tendencies when I'm playing at multiple tables, as opposed to one table. But, can that really be a big win/rate issue?
