multi-table tips anyone?

I just began multi- tabling, usually two 3-6 tables. Any advice on what to change/focus on when switching from one to many tables. People on this site talk about doing 5 or more tables at once, that is the level i would like to get to.

Pratice makes perfect. Move up one at a time. (Although I jumped straight from 1 to 4)

do you still try to get a read on players or does it become all about odds?

The key to multitabling is quickly reconizing situations against the same type of opponents. While each opponent is different, they often fit into a sterotype. Make sure you know your game very well before moving to several tables. Practice does make perfect. Tools such as playerview or GameTime+ allow you to make good reads quickly.

Take notes. This will force you to follow the action more.

Like mtdoak said, I classify players into groups, and play accordingly.

search for TweakUI in probably the Internet forum -- allows you to change focus between tables just by moving your mouse over the table (rather than having to click on it) -- if you have any overlap at all this is a huge help

Does this work for all websites or just the main ones? I cut costs and got 2 19 LCD's instead of 20's and have slight overlap, but I don't play on any of the main sites I prop 90% of the time.

tweakUI has nothing to do with poker at all, and will work for all windows apps
