Effect of multi tabling

[WSOPWinner2005]

How dramatically has multi tabling (preferably only people playing 4 or more tables) changed your VP$IP ?


Also, a poll - What is your VP$IP when you are playing 4 tables or more...

I voted <17 because I'm a tight f***er, but this poll is fairly useless without levels and/or without specifying a change in VP$IP when multi-tabling vs. single-tabling.

EDIT: Hmm, the swear-filter doesn't censor f***er...

Good point, didn't see how to edit main post and add to the poll thought [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Also, I have a VP$IP less than 17% at 25NL, but that's not because of multi-tabling.

Yeah, unfortunately it won't let you edit the poll. Sorry to be a bit snappy there, I really should work on my manners [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

To really answer the question, I'm not sure because I don't have a lot of stats from when I was single-tabling (mostly before I started using PT). I would guess that the reduction for a decent 20 VP$IP 50c/$1 player would be in the 1-2 points range.

Imagine not too far in the future. Every Party table with players at 18 Vp$ip or less! All the fish have died out like the buffalo...

Mean while DS composes a new book on how to beat tight games.

Isaac, multi tabling has helped me TREMENDOUSLY with my VP$IP - I went from 23-25% range to down to 17.5% over last 20,000 hands .... once i got used to 4 tabling I won't go back it's pointless and WAY to damn boring man. Weird thing is I am still thinkng it was easier to 4 table by cascaing on my 1024 X 768 than it is my 1280 X 1024 LOL.. The window pane method is still throwing me off a bit.

Sure as I give it time I will get used to it though. PRy another 10 - 20 hours r so of 4 tabling (2,000 - 4,000 hands)

By the way you didn't seem snappy at all bro - I have dealt with MUCH worse your comments rolled off my back and I didn't even take them negatively [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] You gotta say alot more than that to get the new me pissed off or even leaning that way.. LOL

He could name it Hold'em Poker For Advanced Players. That should sell.

I swear this seems closer and closer every day. Even at the low limits on Party, it's not uncommon to see five or six players who are TA-A. You open another table, and three of the guys are the same ones who were at the last table. This is mostly during early afternoons, but it is a matter of time before online poker is overrun with multitablers.

Every day, someone posts a question about how to set up a second monitor or how they're thinking about being a multitabling pro.

I think this year will be the last year the games will be generally good. Every mulitabler requires several fish to feed him.
