Message: [QUOTE="The Dark Side, post: 1564260, member: 58338"] When I started taking the game seriously (Jan.2010) I immediatley understood that Mass Multi-Tabling was absolutely mandatory for maximum profit potential.And... It is.But here is where it goes bad. We're not good enough to play that many tables anyway. Aside from keeping up. I mean actual poker skills. If you have a leak in your game on 1 table, youll be losing money from that leak. Whether it be in actual loss in money with a downward sriraling BR or loss just a small loss in winrate. Now take that same leak and multiply it by 15-20 tables and your BR is heading for a beating.The reason why people like Leatherass can play so many tables isnt because he's different than us, its because his skill permits him too. Many tough desicions for novice players are insta-plays for experts. Now once you have your game built up to the point where the leaks are small and the auto-pilot is ready for positive winrate you can easily start adding tables slowly and keep up and keep winning.I started playing 15 constantly @ 2nl. MISTAKE. There isnt a reason in the world why anyone should be playing that many tables in the micros. Skill doesnt permit it. It took me up until June until I finally had this epiphany. When my BR dropped from $475 to $17. I then dropped to 4 tables and began focusing on REALLY getting better. On really understanding what Im reading or watching in videos. And then apply it to my game. Not be afraid to implement what I learned. Never say "I know I should raise here, but Im gonna call/fold". If I know I should raise, I raise. The problem with planning is failure to execute.Now Im crushing 10nl. I finally feel comforatble saying I can beat 10nl. Almost rolled for my move up to 25nl, with a goal of moving to 50nl by the 1st of next year.Before, playing the same stakes I knew I wasnt doing well. I was playing for rakeback and losing that too.Oh and i play 6 tables usually now. And am able to make great reads and plays on all. Because that is where my skill level allows me to comfortably play. If your skill level only allows you to play 1 table, then play 1 table. You will get better, and 1 table wont be enough.Really long winded and prolly TMI but I hopeyou can get something from that. [/QUOTE]
