Default Strategies for 24-tabling with a crappy 1280 x 1024 monitor? (Stars)

Crossposted in Full Ring forum.

Stars has recently increased the limits of the number of tables that can opened (ring games). As I am constrained by the current limitations of my monitor 1280 * 1024, what would be the best way to arrange these tables to minimize the chance of a misclick on a wrong tables? Are there any other software strategies that I can use?

Although 24 tables can be opened, the "tile" feature in Stars would only allow to do it with 12.

How could you possibly want to 24 table and not have the money to at least have a 1600x1200 monitor if not 2 or 3.

He is playing full ring so it is a little bit easier. But sounds like a terrible idea to me.

The question is obviously someone being silly. I mean, if you're able to play 24 tables, and your screen isn't big enough...duhhhh.

IMHO, if you aren't making a profit and have to ask what do, play less tables. play bigger stakes if you are a winning player and buy a bigger monitor.

Why would someone want to play 24 tables? There is NO way to concentrate on that many tables. I read an excellent article that showed the loss/gain with 4 vs 8 vs 12 vs 16, which is as high as they felt was even sane. The dropoff from 8 to 12 was enormous, and 16 was even worse. Bottom line was 8 was the ideal count, for those able to multi-table that high even.

FGators mentality. FPPs are more important than playing winning poker.
