Another Mass multitabling video

[ShoveOrFold]

I really liked loltrickedu's videos on mass multitabling. I would like to see some more of these. They are really fast paced, has lots of action, and its fun to see how different he would play certain hands from me.

One question i wanted to know is which is more profitable? 12 tabling 50 nl tables, or playing less tables at higher stakes? I guess it depends on the person, but how big is it for a higher stakes player like 600 to 800 nl?

I think the problem right now is that the Cake poker client is fairly unstable to multi-tabling right now IMO. I know that if I get more than 3 tables going, I will get disconnected and end up losing tables in the process.

SOF i agree with you, i recently watched the mass multi tabling video and now i have started to 15 table 2nl on Pokerstars.
Obv these stakes are insignificant but it really helps and it would be great to see another.

I also would like to see more mass multitabling.

[loltrickedu]

For me i dont really lose anything when i add more tables if i am comfortable at the level. There is no difference of play imo at 400nl if i have 2 or 16 tables up because i know how to play the limit. The differences come when i move up in limits i usually start with 2-4 tables and build as i grow more comfortable.

What do you mean you don't lose anything and there's no difference between 2 and 16? On two tables you can pin down the tendencies of every player, on sixteen you'll have trouble noticing/remembering anyone specific. Does the play at 400NL vary so little? I guess if you've got the strategy in your blood having to make decisions in a split second won't matter much, but getting under the skin of your opponent is all but impossible on a lot of tables. Or do you mean you usually know everyone at the limit? Or do you just lack the motivation to take a whole bunch of notes on people and getting in their head, so might as well add more tables as you're not gonna do it on a manageable number either anyway?

At my OMG 25NL there's no difference between 2 and 16 tables either imo lol, but that's because noone who has the motivation and capability to really abuse their opponents and play more sophisticated than mere automatic ABC game should be playing limits this low. I would've assumed past 200NL or so you don't get by with automatic game like that anymore, or perhaps rather that it begins to become very profitable?

Someone at 2+2, supposedly now a successful high stakes player (the name fees comes to mind, but I could be wrong here) suggested that the quickest way to improve your game to high stakes level is to never play more than 4 tables and never use a HUD but rely on notes. Exactly where is this point where you need this mindset then, if 400NL is still automatic?

We are talking about CAKE poker here lol.
I really don't think making masses of notes is going to change your win rate that much to be worth the time invested.

[loltrickedu]

i would say a combination of everything, i have notes on almost every player but i can still pick up things but alot of pf is pretty standard and what amount of hands goes to a flop that i am in, maybe 10% max, which mean i am really only going to be playing 2 hands postflop alot of the time, an absolute max of 5 i would say.

Well, there are many ways to improve. If you play only 4 tables, you can really think through a hand. So do not just klick as fast as possible, but just sit there and wait a little and think about what to do on the turn etc. If you play 16tables and are not used to that thought process, you'll have a hard time learning it. But if you sit down and replay your biggest hands after your session and think them through, there is should be only little difference in your 'improvement rate'.

Playing 16tables at one limit, shouldn't a huge problem, if you know most of the regs and know how to react to their moves. Cause the fish play still bad and it is a pretty straight forward game against them.
