The correct move now would be to concentrate your tilt into anger, then move up in limits to make up what you have lost. Please see my thread to see the good results of others.

A little bit of tilt, a little bit of burnout, and all of a sudden your 1.5 bb/100 winrate 10 tabling or 8 tabling 6m is now -1. There's a reason why nobody 10 tables those games.

FYP.

I'm about 2.25-2.75 at 4 tables and have routinely played 8 for well over 2 months. I imagine I'm not dropping below 1.5 at 10.

hahahahahahaha. Unfortunately, multitabling does not work like that. The jump from 1 to 2 tables is less difficult than the jump from 8 to 9 tables. Realisticly, your winrate is 1.0 BB at max, and probably less 10 tabling.

I 8-tabled 5/10 for over 100k hands and my winrate dropped .75 BB/100 from about 150k playing 4 tables.


Edit: Actually, I agree with your 1 BB/100 10-tabling estimate.

Hopefully you dont take offense here, but you either over-estimate your abilities or are phased less by multi-tabling than anyone i have ever met or spoke to. 10 tables of 6 max is A LOT, especially since they arent always 6 handed.

Yeah, I revised my estimate. I'd guess about 1 BB/100 long-term 10 tabling. I'm really, really used to 8-tabling 6max though.

As someone who has multitabled a lot, I think most people underestimate just how well you can play tons of tables. The problem is if you are comfy with 8, moving to 10 requires quite a bit of time to adjust. I'd say being tired is more of a factor in your graph than the extra 2 tables, but moving to an extra 2 tables while tired was a bad idea.

By the way, I've decided at least part of it is timing out because of overlap (I have 2400 horizontal pixels in 1900 pixels of space on my 2405FPW).

If you're 10-tabling, a downswing results not just from a bad run of cards, but also a bad run of **tables**. You may want to randomly close and open a couple of tables. Or leave instead of rebuying a table.

Better yet would be to play less tables when you are losing and more tables when you are winning, but the first part of that statement is easier said than done.
