Default Re: 100k hands a month

Pretty sure if you tried this in your first month of SH play, you will end up playing a terrible, leaky form of poker that will take another 100k hands to fix. The way to learn poker (or so I'm told) is to play, post, discuss, and play more.

And while 4-tabling is what my poker addiction requires, it will hardly make you a great player. Try fewer tables and make sure to practice playing 3-4 handed games as well.

i 6tabled almost 50k hands last month and it took about 103 hours.

i really don't recommend just 4tabling sh lhe right away but it's your br [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Just prepare for a few 1k swings in an hour or two along the way.

if you got 2x 21" screens you can play up to 8 tables.

dont switch to 8 from 4, just add one by one and play some time to get used to the speed of play. everyone can learn it.

I play 50k+ hands per month and work from 9 to 5.

playing 100k hands is not a problem, if you:
- play fulltime
- are able to multitask
- are able to make right decision pretty fast
