How do you arrange five or six table on the screen? I can four table just fine, but I am wondering what resolution you use, or do you not fit the whole table on the screen or what? By the way I play on a 15.4" laptop, with a max resolution of 1680 x 1050. Screenshots would be nice. Thanks.

I have a small-ass screen on my Macbook, but as inspired by Spoon's videos, I just cascade windows now and I'm perfectly happy playing 8 tables - tables just pop to the front when they need your attention.

Where are spoons videos? I don't see them in the poker video section.

Err. It seems I just got it from him directly and its actually not hosted anywhere. He basically just cascades all the windows, like when you right-click the windows task bar and click "cascade windows".

When you cascade the windows you just need to make sure that none of the action (fold/check/call/raise) buttons on any of the windows overlap. Because if for example you are about to click fold on some standard hand and then another table's window comes in front just as you are about to click fold, and you end up misclicking and making some really stupid call.

At the current time I'm only playing six tables and don't like them cascaded. I like to be able to see a bit of each window which keeps me from misclicking. I run 6 tables with a 19" monitor at a 1280X1024 resolution.
The best thing is to try it a few different ways until you find what you like.

You can set it up so that you have to click the window to bring it up. That way windows never just pop up on their own.
