Poker Multi-Tabling for Profit
Most players eventually realize that it's fun and fairly easy to play at multiple online tables at one time – it’s the most effective way to maximize your earning potential.
Here are some tips and instructions for playing multiple games:
- Increase the resolution on your monitor. You can do this by right clicking on the desktop, then clicking on Properties, then clicking on Settings. You can then grab the arrow in the Screen Resolution area and move it to a smaller resolution. If possible, use the 1,600 x 1,200 setting to get up to four games on one screen without overlap. In order to maximize your screen area, make sure your video card and monitor support higher resolution settings.
- Once you get into playing more than one game, the best way for you to keep up with the action is to look for hands you can fold automatically. Use advance play actions that will help you to be able to pay more attention to the specific game where you actaully have a real solid starting hand. Or you can do what I do, I personally recommend and use a very, very good and solid pre-flop, texas holdem table managing software called "Hold'em Watcher", believe me, it works great on FullTilt, Absolute Poker and Party Poker.
- Play the same game at every table. It will help you avoid mistakes in reading and playing your hand, and you'll find it easier to get into a good rhythm.
- Most importantly: Track those who have raised the pot. Make sure you make a mental note of this since it is the key to how you will play your hand later. It sounds simple, but it is easy to get in a pot and not recall who raised when you're playing more than one game.
- Make sure you take some breaks. Believe me, the games will still be there when you get back.
