Let's do it again

About 5 months have gone by since the miracle comeback from $0 and I'm up around $200. I'm at about 3BB/100 which is ok I guess, but I feel it should be higher at these stakes. I have a full time job and a family so my time is limited. Ive been getting in about 4K-5K hands per month, mostly on weekends and sneaking in some table-time while at the office.

Question...
I've tried, but I really struggle with anything more than two tables at 6max. Occasionally I've run 4 tables at full ring but I end up timing out if I get into more than 2 hands at the same time. How do you guys play 6, 12, or even 24 tables at a time. I just cant even wrap my head around it. I'm somewhat limited by hardware I guess, but even with a larger monitor I can't imagine fitting more than 4 tables on one screen, especially with the HUD running. Maybe thats why 6Max is more appealing to me. Even with just two or three tables I'm in enough action to keep in interesting, if not slightly stressful.

I'll post some stats as soon as I hit the forum minimum-post setting.

i know what you mean about the multitabling. I started out playing 1 table then 2 then settled at 4 for ages. The key is to just add 1 extra table at a time and play fairly tight . stack your tables to reduce mouse movement and most of your decisions revolve around fold fold fold fold AA raise etc.
i have 24 tabled 2nl FR but it was robotic and no time to actually think through a hands play .Now i just 5 table 20nl 6max

I can't play more than 4 tables if I tile them. Way too much mouse and eye movement. Just cascade them to where the buttons aren't on top of each other (so you don't misclick). I can play 9-12 tables of FR with ease.

I never even considered stacking the tables in the past. I always tiled them. I had just seen all the sample videos that way and figured it was better to follow the action. But I think that was the problem, I was trying to follow the action on all the tables.

I went to the 6max 2NLs opened 4 tables, stacked them and it was very doable. There where only 4 6max tables running on Everleaf so I opened 2 more FR and didn't have a single timeout and I came out up for the session.

Scary when you flop top set though and you cant see whats going on on the table... "Is that table ever going to pop back up?" "If someone raises and that thing times out it aint gonna be pretty". I guess that will just take some getting used to.

Thanks StarGrinder and Keith.

I have a second monitor where if I'm playing a big hand or have a big decision I drag the table over and separate it from the pack. If you don't have a second monitor, you can always just leave some room to the right of the screen and drag it there. Once the hand is over I just reorder the tables. Also, I thought not seeing the results was going to drive me nuts but it actually helps. You can always check it in HEM or PT afterwards anyway.
