I question the raise pre-flop w/ AJo, especially with no reads on the table. Flop bet fine, same with Turn.
What's with no re-raise on the river though? There's no chance of a str8 and no boat potential. You've got it so bet it!

Before the fold I think you might be good, but after the fold you are behind a great number of hands!

Gotta hate it when that happens. I think we've all been there once or twice with multi-tabling... [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Ahhh your explanation makes sense. But if 4 tabling works for you, then it just shows how careful you need to try to be when doing it. I have not tried multi-tabling myself, but I wonder whether playing at 4 times the stakes (i.e. $2/$4) would not give you a similar win rate, where you only have to concentrate on one table.
Obviously playing standards go up as the stakes get higher, but $2/$4 is still considered fairly low isn't it? I think this is the route, which I would prefer to take.
Have any other players got views on multi-tabling at low stakes ?

So far I've only played Party during the reload periods so I'm always trying to work off the bonus. The rest of the time I play at another site where I make more money and the rake is lower.

This is the first time I've gotten hands confused like this. It was really an unusual amount of circumstances that all came together at the same time.

If you're going to fold the nuts on the river you should open fold.

Check that flop holmes.

You should have a HU tourney with Bill Fillmaff.
