2+ tabling online

[KramitDaToad 0]

I see a lot of players in the forum play multiple tables at once online. I have done this in the past myself at lower limit games. The game of choice for other members also seems to be limit.I've been playing a lot more NL recently, short handed to keep the action happening.I was wondering...Does anyone regularly play multiple tables of NL at the same time? Is it harder compared to limit? (I am assuming it is as there is a lot more info to process...)

I play 4-8 tables of no-limit at a time. Generally four on PokerStars and four on whichever other site I am into at the time. I have multiple LCDs setup to assist in the clutter. I can generally space out the windows such that I can always see my cards on each quadrant of the screen and thus it makes my play quite quick and responsive and I can keep an eye on things [such as people stealing blinds and bluffing etc]It is more difficult to play NL than Limit obviously since it requires alot more attention, but I suggest a setup like I have above where you can see portions of each table in order to allow you to see what's going on. Without that information you might get pushed around some.I like to play well below my normal limit when playing multiple tables. If i play a single table NL game on PokerStars it's usually the 5/10 if there is a seat. But when I am playing multiple tables I usually play .25/.50 or .5/1.00 just because the swings can be greater.As for if it's difficult or not, I don't think so, but by nature I am a multi-tasking type individual. I always have something going on or I am bored. You should just start out with 2 and then work your way up to 4 or more. Whatever is comfortable to you, but remember you have more money at the tables, so drop down a limit or two or you could find yourself unexpectedly eating half your bankroll without realizing it.
