High Limits
 
I've been thinking about this for a little while so just decided to post it.

1. What really sets out a player, well enough to play 5/10 or 10/20? What addional sttributes are needed at this level? I haven't yet had a chance to go that close yet due to BR.

2. Obviously a lot of people make money on these tables, but surely a mass are losing. Are these just people going to the top as a bit of a gamble, rich men losing permanently, etc? I just dont understand how people could sustain those sort of losses. Surely sensible good players would stick to a level they win at.

3. Thirdly, I have seen people 10 tabling 6max high limits. Surely any reads or other attributes that give people the edge, are lost when playing so many tables? Surely it isnt ABC poker at this level? It cant be super human thats for sure.

Sorry for what will have seemed a very basic post to a lot of you, its just questions that I haven't worked out answers to, and am quite intrigued.

All the top multitabling pro's are really top computer programmers, and have written a successful program to beat the game. Not really that farfetched if you think about it.

Ability to multitask goes a long way too. Able to process different information at once.

You know you're getting better when you are able to identify fishes, not from just 1 table, but multiple tables, after a few orbits.

And BR too.

they recognize the regulars and just assume everyone else is a fish

If you knew how to play nl holdem you'd realize how impossible it'd be for a bot to be good @ it (vs competentish opponents).

its really not hard to multitable. i really dont understand if you guys think 10 tables is harder than 6 tables. maybe i just played to many video games as a child.
