    Playing only one table is f'in ridiculous. You'll spend a lot of time waiting for your turn to act. This will lead to being impatient and playing hands that you shouldn't. Playing more tables (at least 2-3) will actually allow you to play a better, tighter game. It's easier to fold a "maybe" hand, when you have a decision to make at another table. Trust me, try it, get used to it. Profit, imo.

    If you get impatient playing just one table causing you to play bad, you have issues with patience that need to be worked on. The idea that playing more tables lets you play a more solid game is logically absurd. With 1 table you don't need a HUD - you can observe people and get solid reads the old-fashioned way.

    If heist plays better one-tabling, then it's perfectly ok to take it slow and learn the game that way. After a few sessions you'll be more comfortable adding another table, and keep adding till you start reaching a point where your level of play deteriorates.

    Yes, If heist plays better one-tabling or if he's not comfortable with the pace of 2 tables, then he should stick to one. However, I'm not the first person to suggest playing more tables as a way to naturally tighten up. He didn't say what his issues were. That being the case, my advice was probably not the best and I shouldn't have said that 1-tabling was ridiculous. In fact, I remember when playing 2 tables was difficult.

    GL Heist. Listen to eugmac. He's much better than me, seriously.

    I have no idea if this is facetious or whatever, but cut it out. It's an internet forum and we're just here to exchange knowledge with each other, so we help each other get better at poker. In a discussion forum, mistakes can be made, people jump on you for making the mistake, and so on. Trust me, I've made bad posts and been berated for it. But remember that basically this a friendly place and although poker players are aggressive dickheads (when it comes to talking about poker, i'm sure we're all really nice guys IRL), in the end we're not here to get at each others throats, and are trying to be as helpful as possible.
