Default Re: Multitabling Risk of Ruin

I just think when you have to pay attention to more people (not necessarially playing more hands) your reads will be weaker and you will miss some plays.

Other people say that when they play multiple tables, they play better because they are not tempted to play too many hands out of boredom.

It obviously increases your risk of ruin and size of the bankroll needed

[/ QUOTE ]
Wrong. There is no mathematical reason to require a larger bankroll while multitabling if your win rate and standard deviation stay the same.

I'm just saying in theory, you will probably hit bigger and faster downswings, which would indicate you should have a slightly larger bankroll.

No. You will hit the same downswings faster. This may make them easier to notice, but you do not need a larger bankroll.
