I used to play up to about 12 tables at a time. But nowadays, I just play about 2-4.

I was playing SNG on PS at the time. Followed pretty much the same strategy across all of the games.

I prefer to play multiple tables at once. I get to bored with one, unless it's a big tourny.

I play at one table, both tournaments and cash games, really the quality of the game when you play at one table is much better than when you play at several tables.
Many players will say that playing at several tables you can win more, but I will say that you can also lose more)).
Playing at the same table, you can win well and this money will be enough for a quiet life, only you need to play blinds at least one dollar.

This is absolutely normal if you have no experience in multi-tabling and do not need action

to play at the same table, if it is a responsible game, then this is normal.

Yes. By big buy-ins and if 20 - 30 % (or less) of player are in play. I play most one table, max two tables. By more tables I always lose.

For online play one table is not normal, most players play far more tables.

One table is for live poker :).

Why do you lose when you play two tables ?

You can make the same decisions on two tables instead of one ?

Two tables is also not much for online.

I enjoy playing in multiple table tournaments because it helps to build the pots. Also, whether I'm playing single or multiple tables, the strategy is the same...beat everyone at my table and welcome new players so I can take their chips as well.

I prefer to play only one table at a time. I find my game is better. At around 7/8pm there are usually a few freerolls at the same time, and then I might be multi-tabling, but focus, concentration and knowing the other players (not to mention the possibility of misclicking) all go out the window so I play a much poorer game, I've noticed. The max I generally like to play is two but even then I'm not keen, so in general I'd say one. Best games and best wins are always on one table at a time.

It's good if you want focus on the game. Playing one table isn't annoying like playing 2 or more tables.

I just get bored playing at one table, I get distracted by other things, so I almost always play multiple tables or tournaments.

I usually play only one table, the times I tried multiple tables, the smaller screen size affected my play.

If you have a deep run I think it's good to focus at that table but at the beginning of the session you need to play more tables if you want to have to increase the chances to have that 'deep run'. :cool:

Playing one table makes me do a lot of mistakes in preflop play. So I do something else while playing so I play my range, or I multitable at least 2 tables. I'm still a beginner, so I can't play for more than 4 tables, and I find myself the best on 2 tables, and quite good on 3 tables.

I end up playing loose pre flop ranges when playing just one table. Also I end up overplaying many hands post flop.

Do not abuse multi-tabling.
1) You have less time for quality selection.
2) You have less time to make an informed decision.
3) It is more difficult for you to notice the signs of tilt in your rivals in time.
4) The quality of your solutions is rapidly declining.
5) It's harder for you to pay attention to improving your game.

The less table I play the more concentration I will have but I like to play in more than one.

if it's for fun then yes
if you are just starting to play
if they changed the strategy of the game, then yes
if it's an important tournament that requires concentration, then yes

If you want to be the first in the tournament, it's very good strategy.

For you win, you need to be contratation, to have skill and too have lucky.

If you play several tables in the same time, if you were very good in one table, necessary you ll get out of other tables and have concentration in your best game.

But, necessary you need fun for you game to be good.
