Message: [QUOTE="dmorris68, post: 1305897, member: 40397"] If you're trying to play the same game multi-tabling that you do at a single table, then that's your problem. It's a completely different game. You must tighten up and play fewer hands per table, because you don't have much time to spend with clever postflop plays and outhinking opponents. You just play the premium hands for value. Also, most people will find it much easier to multi-table cash games than tournaments. Reason being, in cash games the blinds are static, all you really have to keep up with is the street you're on, pot size, and the opponents in the hand. With tourney's, you have to factor in the ever increasing blinds which force you to further change up your play such that you play a given hand completely differently on one table than another, assuming your tourney starts are staggered. If you start them all up at exactly the same time it's less of an issue, but it's almost impossible to start more than a few close enough together that the levels stay close to the same. I'm quite comfortable playing 4-5 tables of 50NL at a time, and honestly get bored now if I'm playing less than that. But with MTT/SnGs I still play only one at a time (and I virtually never play STTs either). I find tournament play a more complex game and therefore prefer to maintain my concentration, particularly as I get deeper. Another piece of software that successful multi-players invariably use are stat HUDs -- these are critical because there's no way an ordinary human can keep up with 81 other players while 10-tabling, especially as players rotate in and out. You'll be hard pressed to find any serious, successful online player (at least outside the pro/nosebleed stakes) that doesn't use a tracker & HUD, but especially those that multi-table. [/QUOTE]
