Attn multi-tablers...

[Chicago_Kid]

Discussion...how many tables do you play simultaneously and at what level, to generate your best profit? I currently play 50/100 NL.

[finky]

I find 2, sometimes 3, tables of 6-max most profitable (NL100/NL200). Its still only 10-15 other players so good reads are still possible and there seems to be a constant stream of action.

[dan]

i play 2 tables of NL25

[Pelion]

2 table 10NL. I can just about 3 table and get really confused with 4.

[twosevoff]

I generally play 5-7 6max tables (NL200-600) at a time, and I probably generate my best profit with 5 or 6 at once, though I haven't experimented with playing 3 or less.

[Miffed22001]

4 at 50NL
2 at 100NL
My multi tabling at 100 still sucks bad

[Renton]

sometimes 4 25nls
sometimes 3 50nls
sometimes 2 25nls and 2 50 nls

and the rest of the time 3 25nls and a tourny

I've 6 tabled 25NL full ring when working off a bonus. Thats not too bad for a short time, but I wouldn't do it all the time. I've 4 tabled 50NL full ring also. But my best production comes with 2-3 tables at 25 and 50NL.

Also for some reason my best production is from 6 max. I just prefer full ring. I dont play alot of 6 max though because I dont like having to ante as often, especially when I fold so much. I think this is more a married to my money thing though.

Another funny thing. Sometimes I accidentally sit at PL tables thinking I clicked the NL table. So I will have a couple NL tables open and one PL table, or the other way around. For some reason I have always done really well when this has happened. I play just like playing NL and the only way I find out Im at a PL table is when I try to push or place a big bet and the table will not let me bet more than the pot. Then its like "Crap" what am I doing on this table. But of the few times (10 or so) I've sit at PL tables not knowing it, I've always come away a decent winner.

I play 5 50nl but I would play like 8 if the site hadn't got a limit of 5 tables at once.

Most 100nl I've played is 4.

[johnny_fish]

4 tables 200NL/100NL, sometimes 3 and 1 MTT.

When I get a new cpu, I'll try 5-6, maybe more.

Do you play at fortune? If you don't mind me asking.

No its a different network. I think the HHs look the same or something but I got the idea you played where I play. Ok nevermind.

[Lodogg]

4 tabling $25 or 2 tabling $50.

[Chicago_Kid]

OK...not to hijack my own post, but I'm posing a specific question here because I've started to see a degradation in my play at 4 or more tables.

This actually took me a while to figure out. I only started to see this after I made a resolution during my winter holiday to work on my reads, and I felt I had to play fewer tables to do so. Well, I just killed the tables over break and throughout January, but I made the mistake of starting to play more tables again this month.

So for me, apparently rock-rolling 4-6 tables of $50/100 was not as profitable as being "active" at 3 tables. With 3 tables, I not only had better reads, but I got paid off by being slightly more active. Granted, my variance is probably higher, but apparently, so is my confidence.

Anyway, this post has morphed into a PT question...does anyone know how to quantitatively prove this in PT? In other words, disect performance based on the number of concurrent games?

[midas06]

Go into session stats, check the sessions where you have played 3 tables, check the sessions where you have played 4+ tables.

Your sample size will probably be too small.

Perhaps I'm dense on this, but I don't see how to determine BB/100 for a specific set of concurrent sessions...can you be more specific on how to do so?

[m3laNcholy]

5 x 2/4.

[Irisheyes]

impressive.

Wow.I once tried 8 tables at Party .50/1 and it didn't go too well despite playing only top hands.Oh well.

[spino1i]

If im playing PartyPoker.. 2 tables of 600 NL full ring and 2 tables of 1000 NL full ring. If im on PokerStars 5 tables of 600 NL full ring.

[SinkRox]

I've 10 tabled at Party NL25 and B2B NL50 while bored and clearing bonii. At this amount I could only play extremely tight (probably VPIP 8-9%).. at party i managed a 5ptBB/100 profit but at B2B i ran at a measly 0.8ptBB./100. But hey it sure cleared the 800e bonii quick.

For best performace I 4-6 table at NL50. When I try and move to NL100 again Ill probly only 3 table to begin with... I may try 2 tabling but i think this will actually be detrimental to me.

[Chicago_Kid]

I have to balance the boredom factor with the reads factor, and 3 seems to be my sw33t spot.

[Pingviini]

2 (max 3 if the tables are really fishy) tables SH 2/4+

[Muxy]

When I was playing ring i would

6 table - 10nl

and 5 table - 25nl.
