Multi-Tabling

Did anyone else find it difficult to multi-table when first starting out?

I had a try at a couple of DYM tournaments earlier.
Been doing well when I just have one table open, but fail miserably
with two tables open ?

    when i first started i could only play one table and that was pretty bad, you need to be thinking about your hand ranges so basically what hand you open/call/3bet in what positions, i play 8 tables which is not that many compared to most but i leave a lot of dead money behind as i play pretty robotic on auto pilot

    my advice would be to learn the game to a good standard before you think about opening more tables then work out whats best for you as in grinding a load of tables or playing your best game on less

    I have done 7 cash games quite comfortably 

    Recently tried multi tabling dyms - and struggled big - time.

    Stack sizes of everyone at the table matter so much more, so my eyes were always darting around each table to see where I was at. How many were left/was there a shorty etc etc

    Stick with it and you'll be fine, just be prepared to time out a few times at the start and increase table numbers gradually. I was terrible when I first started 2 tabling lol, multi-tabling dym's should be easier than other formats though imo.
