Just at the $11 at party. Not too bad with the awesome Dell 2001FP but will still have to get used to the whole screen flashing at me when I have 4 decisions to make on the bubble at the same time.

I have respect for you 6 and 8+ tablers, I am a loooong way from there. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

I sometimes like to start the games 2 levels apart, eg play a one-table till level 2, then start a new game, play that till level 2, then start a new one etc...

Makes it a little easier on the decisions, and your rarely heads up in 2 or more tables, which can get nasty.

Just experiment and see what you like.

Try stagering your starts you wont have as many decisions to make.. maybe only 1-2 tables will be at the bubble other tables will be in early stages where you wont be playing as many hands.. much easier

Just do a few sets of 2tabling, a few of 3 and then try 4.

Do you multi-guys use multiple monitors? (sorry if this is a noob question)

1C5 · #6 02-01-2005, 10:59 PM

No, I just use one monitor that fits 4 tables on it with no overlap. If I ever start 8 tabling I would get a 2nd monitor.

Guys who 4table just use 1 monitor. Any more tables and you need a 2nd monitor (unless you use a monitor with 2048x1536 which fits 6). I'm using the Dell LCD since my laptop really only fits one (I can 5table max right now).

I just started 4-tabling (lots of overlap, 1152x...), and it's fun. I had a bloated bankroll for 10+1's, so I figured I could handle the downswings. I probably had a significant negative ROI for 30 or so, but I'm pretty sure I'm now back positive.

I 8-table on my 1400x1050 laptop. It's not ideal obviously, but it's doable.
