Default Re: How many tables is \"appropriate\" at 10/20 6 Max?? Metetron, others???

I'm not really going to answer your question, but I talked to poster VKH over dinner and he mentioned a calculation he did:

For a 10/20 player making 2.5BB/100 and who experiences a .20 BB/100 reduction in winrate for each additional table beyond 1, the optimal number is 6. I think he took rakeback into account as well. Obviously these are some arbitrary assumptions. Also very very few players make over 2.5BB/100 as a true winrate in that game, meaning the optimal number would likely be lower. Maybe he'll reply in this thread.

FWIW I play 4-6 tables of 10/20 and am pretty happy with that amount. It is my opinion that the more tables you add, the slower you will improve. Therefore if you wish to optimize the money you earn over the long term you may wish to play fewer tables than you would if your goal were to maximize immediate earn.
