Default Playing 2 tables at once!

Can any of you guys play 2 tables at once?

I tried this the other day. It was really hard! My friend came over and he saw me and he thought I was crazy!!!

Now he told all my other friends that I can play 2 poker tables at the same time and they all think I'm some kind of hero. They want me to teach them how to think that fast and do it, but I don't think it is something you can teach. I think you just have to be born with the intuition to be able to do it.

What do you think?

Stop lying all of you..
at NL I can't see any of you not playing at LEAST 2 tables at one time. for SH Limit Holdem 4 tables is common and Full ring LH.. 8 tables.

I couldn't 3 table, lost $50,000 trying, but I found a solution. Black jack waits for you, so you can play as slow as you want, now I have 10 winows of black jack open, and if I hit a straight flush one one table while i'm check/raising on the other it doisen;'t even matter acause the straight flush waits for me on the other tbales.

Default Re: Playing 2 tables at once!

can't believe this whole sarcasm thing lasted like 20 posts, but seriously... Most serious online players I know play 8 tables at the same time especially for limit. One of my buddies does 12. Personally I find my performance per table lacks once I start playing too many tables since I stop picking out player tendencies. This is especially true in Sit N Gos NOlimit HOld em. But since I can fit more tables in the hour my tables per hour rate has gone up while my money per table per tourny rate has gone down. Whether my hourly rate has gone up or not is something I need to work hard to figure out. Can someone give a serious response to this legitimate question please??

Don't do it. All your cards will be good for one table and not the other. You'll have 22 on one table and AK on the other. The 22 table will have a flop of TJQ, while the AK table a flop of 222 (there are 5 2's when the doom switch is on and when dikshit sees you have 2 tables he calls the office and they flip the doom switch)

But for serious you are being selfish by taking up extra seats. Also, it may be your fault this forum is here because by doing so you have the doom switch flipped.

If you can find a 3rd computer, open a third one and leave it, that may turn off the doom switch.

i noticed that happened all the time! sometimes i thought i had a flush but i was looking at the wrong flop! it kind of pissed me off but i just have to learn how to think faster. hopefully i can keep on practicing.

i wonder if anyone has ever done 3 tables. probably not..well maybe they have but they would probably lose alot of money because you wouldn't be able to see who the fish are
