Default Re: 8-tabling vs 4-tabling

[ QUOTE ]
Several posters on here 8 table these stakes and higher. I believe KKF used to 8 table 2000 NL. My go-to style is not LAG btw, rather TAG or sLAG. However it baffles me the number of "good" players who are not capable of adjusting to table conditions and can only play one style profitably. This is what I do not want to become.

And as for why I don't play 4 1000 tables, if I were to start 8 tabling I would 8 table the 1000 games too when I move up. I've had to withdraw over 10k in the last few weeks to handle some personal and legal matters, so that is in part why I don't play the 1000 games (I'm a winning player over the 1500 hands I have played at this level). And I'm making more than enough money on the tables I'm at so I'm not in a rush to move up yet.

If we are thinking of the same post KKF said he used to play 8 tables of 200NL.

I guess I am not saying it is impossible but let me put it this way. If you can make 5PT bb/hr 4 tabling 1000NL you would need to make 10PT bb/hr if u played 8 tables that are half 400NL and half 600NL to match that. It sounds like ur skills and style would be more suited to larger games than 8 tabling, since your reads would suffer.

It just seems to me that 1000NL would be more fun/ profitable. If you add 4 tables of 400-600 theres a good chance you will have a downswing. At least move up slowly.

If you do decide to 8 table 400-600 I would love to hear a report after you have done this for awhile on the differences in your game/winrate compared to 4 tabling.

Best of luck though. If you can handle this you will have impressed me quite a bit, I hope it works out.
