Default Best Way to Multitable SnGs

For people who play 6+ SnGs at a time.

Do you prefer to start all tournaments at once and wait for them to all get done before starting more?

Do you start a few, then 10-15 mins later start a few more, and continue?

Or do you open as many as possible and start a new one every time you bust out or cash?

I have tried starting 9 at the same time but If I get down to the bubble on 4 or 5 at once, its impossible to keep track of.

alot of people do a lot of different things
some people reload every time one ends, also known as playing 'continuously'
some people play in 'sets', which means they will open however many tables they want at the same time and then play them all to the finish without reloading any if they bust out
as for how many tables you play, to play lots of tables you need to build up to it, playing a ton of tables isnt impossible, but you wont get there overnight

I currently play sets of 12 sng's.

I started out playing continuously (not 12 at that time), but found that adapting to playing heads up at one table at the same time as playing full ring at another table was hard.

So i switched to sets, and I find it is much better (for me anyway).

Continous confuses me for some reason.

This month i have been registering for 18, then playing till 4/5 left and then queuing up another 18

oh and resized tables so no overlap (2 monitors)

as manchild and others have said, its a matter of personal preference. many people after 10ish tables tend to cascade them all, some ppl have to just make them all small even at 15 tables so they can see them all. when i play 12 or more tables i tend to actually mix cascading and tiling, and i start them all as they fire off, semi continuously...its complicated to explain but it fits, if you want more detail as to how i do it personall just PM me, i dont feel like typing it all out of i dont have to [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

again, practice and building up, and youll find what works for you

i open 6, wait 10 minutes (2 levels), open 6 more, then replace tables that I donk out of (frequently) for the rest of the session.

playing with no overlap, my brain can't cope with overlap.
