While I agree this IS the way to make the most money, I sometimes find trying to get fancy on players at micro limits backfires on me more often than not. That one time I think I have them pegged and come up over the top, they've got the nuts.

I'm also very inherently lazy. I pull up four tables and play my position / starting hands. I do my best to put my opponents on a hand when I get involved with them, but sometimes I just dont feel like paying attention to ALL of the action ALL of the time when I'm playing 4-tables. Obviously its going to be harder to get reads when you're playing more than one table at a time.

Even though my game suffers a bit from not being as observant as I should be, I still find that my bankroll increases quicker 4-tabling $10 tables playing the "standard" way, rather than just pulling up one table and trying to get cute against them. This could just be because I dont have enough experience yet to make the correct "moves" at the correct time on the players I have reads on.

How easy is it for you veteran players to play 4+ tables and still pay attention to all the action to the point where you can get solid reads? The only reads I usually have are when I specifically get involved in a hand with someone and remember how they played it.

Doyle Brunson said don't try to bluff a fish. Don't try to put moves on bad players because they dont understand whats going on in the first place. I think mixing up your play and making moves with your reads probably becomes more profitable as you move up in limits and the skill level of the players increases.
