    Having messed around with resolution I came up with this at 1680 x 1050

    Thanks all for feedback! Some good ideas and tips
    Ta FD! Like the look of this!

    @Acidman re "Autofocus" where do you find this setting? When the table loads?

    Click on "Options" at the top left of the table and click on "Auto focus", fifth from bottom

    Go into your control panel and go to adjust screen resolution.  There should be an option in there to "Extend desktop to this monitor".

    I love this thread!!!!!!!!!!!! Trying to cope with 3 games at once does my head in - I have tried to run all at once but the results are a disaster. I wasn't doing too bad when I first started with 3 but it was probably bravado and beginners luck. I am also finding it difficult to concentrate on the games rather than prepare the results for the fantasy league (but I'm getting better at that).

    I have returned to playing them one at a time and burying the other 2 out of sight (sliding the big tables below the eye line of the screen) - keeping an eye on the stats - that is helping me get under the 100 in each comp - but not too deep in any. I do bring 2 up together on mini now and again if they are dropping too low for comfort.

    Currently it feels as though I am donating my fiver to the cause - mind you all us Team 51ers do that - the DTD is amazing - it's like the Grand National of the Poker Season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    None of us would mind if you left the fantasy scores until the next day Imber.

      Glen that was an Excellent Read & Welcome to the Forum DTD Multi-tabling can be daunting it's best to practice with 2 Tables for me i play all 3 in Standard Veiw (bad eyes) & rotate my seat so i have bottom right / bottom left & top middle that way i can see all my cards


      Imber i agree with Dan you could always do it the next day m8

    Ta DTW,  I might experiment with this as I found mini a mare!
    Some great tips from this thread e.g.  I didn't realise about autofocus & miniview defaults.

    You can change all of the settings in preferences when in the lobby by the way.

    Saves doing it when you've got tables open.

    Great thread Glenelg - really helpful. I am also a beginner at DTD with three tables and struggling - some great tips on here will certainly try that screen resolution FlyingDagg.  Can't stand the mini view at all - so am currently doing three full tables and feel I am just ticking over really in each tournie until I fall off the edge somewhere in the middle (lol)  Still really enjoying it tho - only done 2 weeks so far - am hoping to improve - at the moment tables bottom left, bottom right and top middle - has worked sort of ok.

    Thanks for all the tips people.

    One of these days Sky will bring in resizable tables and all our troubles will be over. Watch out for the flying pig.
