    Default A Recommendation for Multi-tablers

    I typically 4 or 6-table 6-max on Party and I wanted to give 8-tabling a shot. The first time I tried it I lost almost $300 on 100nl in pots where I timed out trying to type my bets in on time over a span of 1k hands. Noticing this problem, I came up with an idea. My desk setup was horrible and the problem was mostly caused by having to ackwardly move my hands to type in bets and then click on another table. Here was my solution:

    I picked up one of these at Best Buy and it was possibly one of my bets poker-related purchases. I simply stash away my keyboard, and hold this in my left hand. It only took me an hour to get used to using it left-handed. I tried the same experiment 8-tabling for a couple thousand hands and the improvement was amazing. I highly recommend it to anyone, it pays for itself in equity in about 30 minutes or less. Just thought i would share my findings.

    I don't really see a need for that. Just slide your keyboard over to the left and use the number pad on the right hand side of it with your left hand.
    If I had a hammer
    I'd drop in the morning
    I'd drop in the evening..

    Or if your right handed, just change your mouse to left hand usage and that way you can use the key board number pad with your right hand. I bet it would be easier to use your mouse left handed than the keyboard if your right handed.

    If your left handed and already using your mouse like a right hander then do what stuck said.

    But that is a cool number pad and it does clear space in front of you by getting rid of your big keyboard.

    This isn't a bad idea. Nice find.

    This is a great idea... especially for those of us who prefer to play on laptops.
    So you click their picture and then you get their money?

    or if you happen to have a logitech dinovo wireless keyboard like yours truly, then you have a separate wireless numpad already.
