opinions on the concept? i think a fine one. No need for the gym when you can be sprinting between tables, it would be musical chairs for the new millenium, when the music flops sit down. Dubious tactics could ruin the game if rivals are taken down by a sneaky foot as they endeavour to return to their flopped set before their cards are mucked. Perhaps a lane situation could be organised where there could be chip penalties for running out of your lane to the next table. Or if not, burly players have more chance of muscling their way back to their seat and putting in a $2 minbet bluff to their absent opponent in a $100 pot. Multitournamenting brings up bigger problems including room size and you could never find your table. Here size is all as the centre of the room is a free for all, greg raymer is favored to bulldoze between tables squashing all, with his game matching up to his size he would be a good competitor, but his fitness may be found wanting if he has a big trip between tables.

If you lined the tables up in a hexagonal "daisy" pattern, the inner players could atleast two table simply by turning around.

I remember in One of a Kind or some other book about Doyle playing multiple tables heads up with the tables situated so he could just turn his chair. He was playing 2 or 3 I believe.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
