Online poker has some advantages over playing live poker and one of this is the ability to play the first on multiple tables. A lot of poker rooms on the internet have actually configured their rooms to have a mini mode so you can play several table simultaneously.

The main goal of poker players playing multiple tables is to increase their win rate. If you are quite successful on $100 no limit table, imagine the potential per hour if you can play several tables at a time. The concept is simple, win in more tables per hour. You need to take into consideration though how your game will be affected when you go multitabling.

Winning more money

You need to expect that your winnings per hour will decrease when you play in more tables. This will happen because your attention will divided against a single table game where you are focused on catching possible clues that you can use against your opponent.

Analyzing the hands of your opponents will also be more challenging when you play in several poker tables online. You have to remember though that there is still a higher chance that you can still make more money than playing in one table only.

If you want to go multitabling, you need to find that sweet spot where you can play in as many online poker tables while maintaining maximum profit per hour.

When you play on multiple tables, just keep your play simple. Stick to the basics of poker. Bet when you have strong hands and fold any weak cards. It will be very difficult to use tricky poker techniques when you are thinking of several actions you need to take for the other tables.

Absolutely beautiful. Tom “Durrrr” Dwan, the biggest genius in the world of poker, plays Bob Safai, one of the biggest donkaments in the world of televised poker — and the result is what’s to be expected. Tom has the inferior hand, Bob Safai loses the hand.

It’s exactly what us real poker players like to see: the pros beating down the cashcows and bringing all that cash into the poker community.

Thank you, Tom.

Hehehe much respect to both Tom Dwan and Patrik Antonius (and even Antonio Esfandiari) – but in this hand, Patrik does take control of the hand and risks all his profits in an attempt to just take down the final hand against the other online prodigy.

Beautiful poker.

Stu Ungar is a legend as a poker player and is considered to be one of the best of players in the game of no-limit hold’em. Stu Ungar is one poker player who until this day is greatly remembered for his skill, energy and passion for the game.

Stu Ungar certainly was able to impress all of his fans and detractors alike when he went on to win back-to-back the World Series of Poker championships in the years of 1980 and 1981. This was certainly no mean achievement and one that not many professional poker players have been able to achieve so far.

Later on, after sixteen long years did he venture to participate in the main event once again? The sad thing that happened to Stu Ungar in these sixteen years was that he got addicted to drugs and this ultimately brought about his downfall. He had the world at his feet and all the things really going well for him. People did not only look up to him as a great poker player but he was also considered to be the best gin player as well. The kind of play that he would be able to put on show was only the kind that professionals and true legends could.

I love seeing Patrik Antonius take on some true “pros” and show them who’s boss.

The Cherrybomber is the painful victim of this session of Antonius-genius.
