I find it very difficult to be able to play several tables at once and keep my A-game. I find that when I focus on a single table, I make fewer mistakes than several tables. I often make bad decisions and lose either in tournaments or cash games.
The quality of my game decreases over several tables. I notice that the results after 12 years of online poker allow me to have more results in single table.
And you ? how do you find your comfort at a single table or several tables?

I play mostly more than one table. In germany we have a table limit from 4 table. Since alot of years. Its sad for professionell players because its limit the chance to win more money. Actually i only play freerolls and sometimes there are only one or two tourneys so my bankroll limit the tables a little bit. I hope i could get back to premium access so that i could push my bankroll and then i have the possibility to play more table. I hope it very deeply.

Je joue généralement à plusieurs tables. En Allemagne, le nombre de tables est limité à quatre depuis de nombreuses années. C'est dommage pour les joueurs professionnels, car cela limite leurs chances de gagner plus d'argent. En fait, je ne participe qu'à des freerolls et il n'y a parfois qu'un ou deux tournois, ce qui limite un peu mon budget. J'espère pouvoir revenir à l'accès premium pour augmenter mon budget et pouvoir jouer à plus de tables. Je l'espère de tout cœur.
Unfortunately, poker players have a lot of trouble playing on sites that only allow 4 tables at a time, which reduces the chances of increasing the volume.

I play at several tables, mostly up to 4.
It's very good, it's not a question of the number of tables, but it's still very much about the quality of the choices and where everyone finds their comfort, I think.

Это очень хорошо, и дело не в количестве столов, а в качестве выбора и в том, где каждый найдет себе комфортно, я думаю.
exactly said!!!

I've been playing poker for about 7-8 years, and for the last 3-4 years I've been playing two to four tables at a time. At first it was difficult, but after a few months I got used to it, and I play several tables as well as one.

Je joue au poker depuis environ 7 ou 8 ans, et depuis 3 ou 4 ans, je joue à deux ou quatre tables à la fois. Au début, c'était difficile, mais après quelques mois, je m'y suis habitué et je joue à plusieurs tables en plus d'une seule.
Respect! Multi-tabling 2 to 4 tables without losing quality of play is a real skill. It's clear that at first it's hard to keep up with everything, but once you find your rhythm, it changes everything. Do you play cash games, MTTs, or SNGs? And have you noticed an improvement in your win rate with multi-tabling, or is it more for the volume?

Had 7 games going once but to be fare they were all freerolls. I was going well in 3 freerolls when within 5 mins 4 all in or fold freerolls i had registed for started, it was manic for a few mins but the all in or fold games only last about 10mins. so did not last long.

I play mostly on 2 tables at one, but max on 3 tables. I have try to play on more tables, but that is not good. I can't fokus on my play so I make mistakes.

I can’t focus when I open more than one or two tables.
It feels like I’m in a maze — I lose concentration and end up losing a lot of chips.

جFor me, playing on one or two tables is more enjoyable. I can stay focused and make better decisions that way.

Hi,
Personally, I can play freerolls with up to 4 tables, but more than that affects my quality of play.
With tournaments with higher stakes and good rewards for qualifying for ITM, I prefer to focus on just one table at a time.
Have a good day everyone! :)

I almost always play on multiple tables.
Spin & go on 2-3 tables
6max on 4-6 tables,
9+ on 7-8 tables.
Those are the maximum numbers of course, if I'm not tired then I can usually bring my A game that way.
But I almost never play on less than two tables.

I like to play at just one table, sometimes I get two, more than that I think my performance and decisions are starting to be inefficient

Multi-table freerolls , even if I don't like this way of playing, but in Buy-in tournaments I prefer a single table where the concentration must be more intense!

I honestly really don't like playing on multiple tables at once. Unless you have an entire note gallery on every player around, you can't focus on who plays how and therefore won't be able play exploitative.

Unless you are Nit Microstakes, then I guess it is a viable strategy.

It depends on whether the tournaments I want to play start at the same time. I usually have 3 tournaments open, but I've had 6 open.

to me if I play lesse than 4 tables I find myself doing another thing and loosing my focus, but no more than 6 too or it will get messy and I won't be able to decide better on my opponents.

One too that I find very useful for Multitable is Jurojin hand actions history function. So even If I focused on table 1, I can still see how the hand was played until my action on table 3.

I play with six at once, maximum, it's no longer convenient, 4 is optimal for me

I usually stick to just one table when I play online. I’ve tried multi-tabling a few times, but honestly, I find it hard to manage multiple games at once — especially when I want to stay focused and make good decisions.

Playing one table allows me to pay attention to the action, observe my opponents, and really think through each hand. For now, I prefer quality over quantity. Maybe with more experience I’ll try adding more tables, but at this point, I’d rather play my best game at just one.
