| Posted by: Hazel1111 at January 29, 2006, 10:45 am | | Topic: "Mega" Multitabling Forum: Bonus Whores | There's really two approaches (which can overlap). Once you start getting over 4 tables, you're probably using MultiTableHelper (which I haven't made myself try yet for some reason) and/or more monitors. I'm constantly surprised how many people in the online poker world don't know this, but it's trivially easy to run multiple monitors on recent Windows systems. (XP, 2000, at least)
I'd reccomend a search for more in-detail explanation, there is much on this forum about multi-monitoring. But, for those that don't know about it, here's the quicky version: each video card you have in your computer can typically run one or two monitors all on its own. (Sometimes you have to use an adaptor to make the second socket from the video card fit your second monitor). Once you have the monitors hooked up and drivers installed, recent versions of Windows have multi-monitor support built right in. You just go to your desktop settings, show Windows what physical order your monitors are sitting in, and you're all s... | | Read Entire Entry |
| Posted by: Wellington at January 27, 2006, 11:28 am | | Topic: "Mega" Multitabling Forum: Bonus Whores | The only problems I see with this is table recognition. I usually do 10-12 tables and I rely on where the table is on what screen to identify/remember certain players. Sure PT helps but I usually play NL so I don't rely on it.
If you just playing the cards I guess it wouldn't matter. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: vim at January 27, 2006, 3:30 am | | Topic: "Mega" Multitabling Forum: Bonus Whores | I ten table, with MTH on a laptop.
Also, I've hotscripted a joystick ... so I only need to push a few buttons, no mouse or wrist motion needed.
The tables fly up in sequential order (like on pokestars) and I just blast away with the trigger:
fold, fold, fold, fold, fold ...
It's quite cool.
I use PT and GT+ with no problems.
Best,

Thanks.
No problems at all...It just moves tables that require your action to a spot on your monitor of your choosing (I just have mine in the lower left corner). After action it will replace the table with the one that requires action next. This continues on and on. You never have to use the mouse more than 4 inches across the screen. PT and PA Hud work great with it.
In addition, if you multi-table sngs, it can open up and seat you at a new SNG of your choosing just by pressing ctrl+o...amazing.
Thanks for the info - I'll download it later this week.

| Posted by: necksnapper at January 23, 2006, 12:09 pm | | Topic: "Mega" Multitabling Forum: Bonus Whores | If you are buying a new monitor to fit more tables, remember that the resulotion and not the size is the most important. CRT monitors usually have higher resulotion than LCD, and are cheaper.. but require A LOT of desktop space.
I have been multitabling on a 19" LCD myself but that makes it difficult to fit more than 4 tables (only 1280x1024 resulotion, a 19" CRT has atleast 1600x1200 maxres) I think I played 6 at most then.. but now I've bought a laptop for some of my winnings and now I connect my big screen to the laptop and use both monitors on the laptop for 4 tables on each. | | Static Link |

Looks interesting!
As I don't get past 4 tables at the moment, I am more interested in the keyboard and voice options. Now that I can 4-table without overlap on a 21" monitor, I have noticed that my mild RSI seems to be getting worse because of the extra mouse movement.
I'll certainly look at it after Friday if there is no negative feedback - don't want to upset anything before then.

I'm sure this must be a typo but just to be sure, you want to use the highest resolution and not the lowest.
The only suggestion I have is when you overlap tables, try not to cascade the windows in a way where the action buttons overlap. Other than that, Party is pretty "overlap friendly" IMO since any tables requiring action will become the active window and once you complete an action, it will cycle to the next window requiring action.
Good luck on finishing your bonus.
Thanks. Not exactly a "typo"--more of a "computerese-o" I was thinking lowest as in smallest--but you're right--it's highest resolution.

| Posted by: JS800 at January 23, 2006, 7:50 am | | Topic: "Mega" Multitabling Forum: Bonus Whores | I've seen examples here at the forum of someone having six 17" screens, but I don't know how that person managed to attach them to the computer. Me myself is using Dells 2405 (24", 1920x1200 resolution) and it's a pretty nice size. With some overlap I can fit in 6 tables. There are also some 30" screens out there, but they are quiet expensive. I've also seen pictures of someone having about 8 tables at a screen with maybe 1280x1024 resolution. There sure are some good technique for this that I'm not aware of. But me myself feel like it's to likely to miss something at one of the tables, and missing some or even more bucks (depending on the stakes you play) once in a while could spoil the whole profit of playing so many tables.
In the end it all comes up to your budget. If you play very much poker, are quiet successfull and think you can afford it, go ahead and buy a big monitor.

| Posted by: GailMI at January 23, 2006, 7:24 am | | Topic: "Mega" Multitabling Forum: Bonus Whores | I have a question about multitabling more than 4 tables. I have a standard 17" monitor and on the lowest resolution that I can go to--I can fit 4 Party tables on the screen with just a slight overlap.
If I can't figure out a way to do more tables, I'm not going to be able to clear my last $100 bonus. I see where a lot of you are 8 and 9 tabling. Anybody willing to give me some hints on the mechanics of this? Are people only doing this who have the super monitors, two monitors, etc.? Or are you playing all these tables with total overlap.
I might want to give this a try, but would like some "tips" on the mechnics of it. | | Static Link |
