You suck. A lot.

Every decision you make has a much smaller consequnece than you think it does.

Unless you are playing very skilled opponents, or you tend to play MUCH poorer when multitabling then the shear voulume of hands played 4 tabling should be enough to offset the minor mistakes you make....

i used to multi-table .. i have 2 monitors on my laptop but recently, i have moved up in limits and played 1 (2 at most) and i have been running alot better lately, maybe its the cards which have been running alot better but i feel that I am making fewer costly mistakes. I've improved my game alot (ive also been playing B&m more).
I think its probably best to switch gears from Multi to single and around.. probably a good way to get a well rounded game.
Finding your small leaks will keep you from floatin with the fishies.

Multi-tabling is a pretty constant struggle to find the point where your hourly rate playing a certain number of tables meets or decreases your hourly rate from playing a lesser number of tables. I find that my hourly rate from playing 8 tables just barely exceeds my 6 table hourly rate because my win rate goes down.

I actually find it somewhat easier to work on my game playing a lot of tables at once, because if I want to try a new tactic, or play a certain hand under certain conditions a different way, it's more likely that the situation I'm looking for will come up, and then I can put a little extra attention into that table for the time being. It's just a matter of working to a point where multi-tabling doesn't feel like a fight to keep up.

I see a dramatic difference in my BB/hour win rate when playing just a single table. As I add tables, my rate falls and becomes a pointless effort by the time I reach four tables above $5/$10. For whatever reason, I just can't beat the higher limits for enough to make it a profitable effort to go up in limits and also play three or four tables.

Actually, I'm sure the reason is that my play just isn't strong enough. However, everybody finds the level they are comfortable at (and that they can beat for reasonable money) eventually. Nobody should be ashamed of playing just a single table - the only person you need to impress is yourself. Too much ego can be deadly to a poker player's bankroll. Save your ego, save your bankroll.

I would say the perfect balance for building your knowledge of a specific game and moving up faster would be to play two tables. You still have the chance to make very specific read based plays which you will need proportionately more as you move up to each level. If you can handle 4 tables you will make more money, but I would be pretty certain it would hurt your "growth" as a player to at least a certain extent. Something I try is to play 4 tables when I want to put in hours, and then just play 1 or two in the "dead" daytime hours as a chance to work on my overall game and read based plays. Best of both worlds.

Agreed recently I started playing omaha high and started with 2 tables, also my win rate is a bit up since I started playing less tables, I find that I am more aggressive and make some really creative plays when playing 2-3 tables. If I play 4 I find that I cant really keep up and go into auto pilot, if I ever want to move up ill have to play 2 tables.

Also sorry for the lack of replies I was out of town for the week.

Nice Job! Where do you work?

I have been thinking about this issue recently too. Since I have been doing some reading and come across some new ideas or refinements of some ideas, I think playing fewer tables might help me to implement those refinements.

Usually when I am learning something new I have to go very slowly at first. Then the concepts, or whatever, this can apply to dance class or anything new, begin to become second nature until I can do them on autopilot. Then I slow down again to learn the next thing.

This is just how my brain works but I think most others are pretty similiar.

I have been thinking of playing part of the time 4-tabling. Now I almost always play 3 or 4 tables. And then a shorter amount of time playing just 1 or at most 2 tables to try to learn new skills.

I also support other's suggestions - use tracking software and keep track of your win rates with different numbers of tables.
