I usually play .5-1nl or 1-2nl online and find myself struggling with 3 or more tables, sometimes even 2. I only have about 8k worth of hands for a sample, but when I single table, I am massively up, and when I multitable 2 or more, I'm a little less than even. Obviously I'm playing for profit, so would you guys suggest moving up limits and continuing to single table, or keep practicing multitabling at same limits? I have the br to move up in limits, especially if you guys suggest staying at a single table.

i'll just say its enough to move up to 2-4. the problem i usually encounter is my play is intensively based on reading betting patterns and a feel of my opponents, so when i multitable i usually have little to no read on them. maybe an alternative would be to move down in limits and practice multi?

I would say you should actually drop limits, get used to multitabling, then move back up. You are losing ALOT of potential income by limiting yourself to one table.I dropped to .01/.02 to practice my NL game on 4 tables - best move I ever made.Dev

2 or more? as in you can stay even at 2? and lose on 3 or 4? or do you lose at 2 also?I suggest just 2- tabling a few thousand hands at your current level Multi-ing is something that takes time to get used to. Look at your results at that point, and if you're happy, either start 3-tabling or move up. Mensch

If you have just started multi-tabling, follow the above advice and move down in limits to get used to it. When I first started playing online, I thought it was incredibly fast compared to B&M, and had a hard time making decisions in the 10 seconds you're given. After a while, the game slowed down, and I couldn't play less than two tables without it feeling the like the game was crawling. Now I usually 4 table, and I don't feel rushed at all. So my advice, give it time.
