Thanks for starting this thread Robb, this is something I have been thinking about a lot lately.
I play a lot of tables at a time so this is a tricky one for me. I have been searching for the best way to table select without having to spend so much time doing so that my play worsens with all the multi-tasking.
What I currently do is filter tables by pot size and sit down at the top 3 tables. Wait for a full minute, then sit down at the top 3 again.. and repeat this until I get the desired amount of tables.
Every 15 minutes or so I spend a round looking at the 3 players to my right. If at least 2 of them have fishy stats I stay on the table. If 2 look like regs or nits, I sit out next bb. (unless I have like 1000 hands on them and can stay and exploit or am 200+ bbs deep)
Pot size overall seems to be the best indicator of showdown monkeys, fish, and players that overall like to splash it around.. which is what we seek.
I steadily replace these tables with fresh ones as I go.
My hourly rate this month was about $22/hr at 25NL doing this and I ran really bad the last week of the month.
