    I found adding tables to a level where I struggled then dropping down helped get me to a stage where I can play a fair few tables.

    I don't think many, if any, play that many tables on sky but most regs will be playing say 6 tables. As you add tables you will miss some information. Experience and good notes help with this. With table count its about reducing variance and increasing your hourly.

    Nice one Matt , I just assumed you had about 10 open and 4 other sites. Makes me feel more comfortable with my decision to only ever 4 table.

    Also .. if I can dig it out , do you mind if I DM you about a hand we played last night. Saying that it's to help plug a leak in my game so I would understand if you didnt want too ha. ((or just give me ****. advice :D )

    I'm the player you're referring to. I'm playing tables more than usual with the streak week promotion. DYM's are easy to mass table given they are mainly a preflop game with lots of standard spots. I do generally play a lot more tables than the average regular does though. I have played millions of hands of shallow stacked poker and heads up, so can auto pilot them pretty well also, with the trade off being that I won't always be adjusting perfectly to the players at my table. I tend to put the majority of my focus on the most important games that are running and auto pilot the rest. Like Matt said it's about trying to maximise your hourly rather than your £ per table.

    Once you can handle how ever many tables you're playing, add one more and see how you get on, if you're not making good decisions you aren't ready, but personally I find 3 or 4 tables best. Sky's software is a little laggy so I'm not comfortable with more, and I find if I only play one I get bored and try to win every pot.

    I have all tables visible at once. I have a 49 inch Samsung Monitor as my main monitor and then a secondary monitor where I sometimes put lobbies/spotify/ discord etc. I used to run 3 monitors but very happy I upgraded.

    I played on Sky very little to being with many years ago and remember Matt Bates on some my tables, no longer see him play? Has he moved aboard or something?
