Default Re: multi-tabling

Before I got a multitabling monitor I was able to 3 table on a normal monitor pretty successfully. It just takes some concentration and alot of clicking. Start with 2 tables and when you get comfortable with that try 3.

Maybe it's your video card. I would check the specs on it as well. Another solution is to use 2 monitors. The desktop will be spread over 2 monitors instead of one. Make sure your main video card supports it.

Thanks for the post. I was going to ask the same thing. I thought I was missing an option on PP or something.

Does anybody know of sites that allow you to resize the windows or that are more multi-tabling friendly?

There are sites like Ultimate Bet that have a "miniview" (a thin window running across the screen) so you can multitable easier.

Get a 19 inch monitor, it'll save you a lot of grief.

Set it to 1600 by 1200 resolution (make sure your computer video card can handle that resolution. All new video cards support it but if you have an ancient card, you might need to upgrade it)

This will fit 4 games without any overlap at all.

To those who use a high resolution: What size monitor are you using?

I prefer the old 800x600 resolution, since I am using a 15' monitor. I would like to find a good deal on a larger one, 17' or larger.

The best for cheap is a 19" crt which can be had for under $200, under $100 if you really try. Then you can play 4 tables with no overlap. If you want to play more than 4 you add a second monitor, then you are up to 8 with no overlap

I bought a video card that I can hook up to my big screen TV. Now I play from my couch with my wireless mouse. Only problem is if my cat jumps on the remote and switches channels right when I'm ready to drag a big pot [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I bought a 19" CRT for about $175 a few months ago and am loving it. Set the resolution to 1600 x 1200 and 4 tables with no overlap.
