    Default multi-table, or imrpove play?

    currently maintaining about a 1.5-2 ptbb/100 winrate@ 50NL, and comfortably withdrawing $500+/month

    in order to improve alot of areas of my game i would need to go from 6-8 tbales, down to 2.

    this cuts my hands/month from 35K to under 15K, and im just not sure i can expect a big enough increase in my winrate to offset the loss I would take in rb/bonuses...

    current WR 1.7ptbb/100 (over huge sample)
    Rb/bonuses work out to approx the same 1.7
    totalling 3.4ptbb/100

    i ahve leaks in my game, theres no doubt, but im just not sure i want to fix something that isnt exaclty "broken" ??

    anyone else have this dilemna?

    100 percent improve play.
    "This sure beats Super Mario Bros.!" is my ejaculation catch phrase.

    Why do you have to drop to 2 why can't you just drop to 4? If you're comfortably 8 tabling I see no reason why you have to drop to less than 4. You'll still be more focused and thinking playing 4. Which is a good idea to try and improve to move up anyway.

    started 4 tables earlier, that is the plan for now.

    I find 3 really good for me to work on my game with. If you're really bored with 2 tables, you're probably not paying enough attention to the hands you're not involved in.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    Do you really NEED to withdraw $500/month?

    If not, I would have thought the answer is very obvious.

    do something like 4 tables. If you're used to play 8 you'll never be able to drop down to 2 tables for a significant amount of time, you'll get bored.

    I really need to drop my # of tables as well for some sessions.

    Typically I am 12 tabling 100nl 6max right now, and some 6table sessions would probably help me a lot...id say half is about where I start having a lot more time to think about decisions. If you go down to 2 you might get fancy play syndrome due to the lack of action from so few hands (aka what happens to me everytime i play live poker)
