My problem with Multi-tabling

[Talking Poker]

....but I don't think so.

For starters, I multi-table, and no way am I 5 seconds slower per action (on average) than the average player. I can't prove it, but I would venture a guess that I am actually FASTER than the average player, even including the rare occasions when I get caught up in something and the clock starts ticking.

Of course, that's just me. In an extreme example, I could see a multi-tabler taking an extra 5 seconds per action maybe 10% of the time... so really, that's only an extra 1/2 second per action. Rerun your numbers and you'll want to play with the multi-tablers.

If you don't, so be it. Change tables.

One more piece of advice: You'll never be successful at poker if you don't learn to be patient.... This is as good a place as any to start.

Maybe it's the website I'm at then. I don't think Pokerroom lets you see multiple tables at the same time. I think most people stay at one table until the other table(s) starts flashing at the bottom of their screen, then switch, look and think, and bet.

I can comfortably fit 2 tables on my monitor at Pokerroom. Just gotta play with the settings a bit.

No, no, no. You need to change the resolution on your monitor. People generally see all of their tables simultaneously while multitabling.
