Mutlitabling - Page 4

Most of the lag at games is from internet connections. I have a wireless connection and it randomly decideds to go out on me, causing me to miss hands or I get to it right before time is up.

OK , so far everybody who've replied basically says that multitabling is definitly more profitable. I am willing to try.....but I got 2 questions:

1) Does everybody who multitables have a monitor that can support seeing all the tables at once or do some of u flip back and forth between 4 or more tables?
2)Are there any unsuccessful multitablers out there?? I mean are there any single table winners out there who tried multitabling, then saw their profits go way down and went back to single tabling?

My monitor only does 1280x1024, so I normally play 2-3 tables at a time because the overlap with 4 gets too distracting for me. I couldn't imagine more than 4 with that resolution. I'd misclick like crazy I'm sure.

I used to 4-table with 1280x1024. Arrangerd and seated properly on Party/Skins, you can see your cards, the action buttons, The flop cards on all 4 tables and the rest of the board on the two tables on top. I don't think it presented many problems.

I play four tables on 1162x854. It's not that bad, although I'm sure when I finally get a new monitor I won't beleive I went this long (over a year) without. There is lots of overlap, but lucky the party screens flash and pop up so I know when I'm up. Pokerroom doesn't do this and that sucked, both for me and everyone else at my table.

Here's a n00b question: when should one start multitabling? As soon as they feel comfortable playing one table at whatever bankroll they one is at? I have to admit, sitting there and folding 80%+ of your hands can get really boring at times (expecially where you have a run of crap hands for a couple hours), but if I overextend myself at this point it'll be peace out to my bankroll.

(It's not the hardware I'm worried about -- I have dual 19" monitors on my PC; I just wish it didn't take up my whole desk, heh.)
