WIth straight-forward play - especially as tight as Piers recommends - you will be folding around 85% of your hands. That's about 15 hands per 100 hands dealt. Usually the hands dealt per hour is around 70, so I'd estimate you see around 10-12 hands per hour. My point? It's VERY easy to multi-table with such tight play. Plus, playing at 3 or 4 tables at once will give you plenty of action so you don't start playing marginal hands out of boredom.
Still, if you're not too familiar with limit play, I'd stick with two tables to start. Then move up to 3 or 4 tables when you're comfortable.
When 3 or 4 tabling, I sometimes am on one table where I only found 9/90 hands to be playable (and I play looser than Piers). On another table, I might play 20/100 hands. So yes, there will definitely be times you catch cold cards. It's perfectly normal.
Usually if you're winning big pots on a table that means you're playing well there. Don't leave just because "you're up". Leaving because you're losing focus, have too much on your mind, are hungry or tired, etc, is fine. But not just because you're up!Statistics: Posted by EscapePlan9 — Thu Aug 18, 2005 2:52 pm
