Default Strategy against multi-tablers....

Here it is the situation. You see a guy taking some time to make his decisions. You search his name and see he is playing several tables at once.

How can you take advantage of this? For example, stealing his BB, or leading out with a donk bet?

He is probably playing tight ABC poker so where can you fleece him?

3bet more SCs low pairs ect Id say, he should raise such a wide range and fold to 3bets you could probably profitably 3bet any hand... depends on the rest of the table somewhat though, also defending blinds cr all the Axy Kxy dry flops, dont second barrel though

really though players who are multitabling should not be your targets since they are more likely to know what theyre doing and thus probably have less leaks/ exploitive play than non multitablers, Id say find a new table if your sitting six max NLHE at low limits with a regular whose playing like 5 to 10 tables

Don't slowplay. I find that some multi-tablers are prone to stacking off with TPTK a lot.

Some multi-tablers are also incapable of firing a second barrel.

They also often fire off c-bets 100% of the time, which is an exploitable behavior. How to exploit it depends on how they react to various plays, but keep in mind that a lot of multi-tablers seem to have pretty rigid starting hand requirements.

In general, multi-tablers aren't looking to play too much after the flop. (Some can but a lot don't.) They make money mostly off of people who make poor starting hand decisions. Force them to make decisions that imply that they will have to make decisions on future streets. If you bluff or semi-bluff, don't push and make it an easy decision (unless it's the river); make sure that you have enough left behind so that you can threaten them with another big bet on the next street.

Different multi-tablers have different leaks, so "it depends." The thing is, players who don't multi-table can also have these leaks, so you should be looking out for them anyways.

pretty much sums it up perfectly IMO, another point would be not worrying about ur line, if u think hes weak and ur line makes no sense - doesnt matter just bluff away. A lot of them look at the complexion of the board more than the action, so if the board gets real scary - bluff away IMO. Obviously this isnt all-encompassing as some multi tablers do pay attention to lines and some just wont fold tp even if its a 4 card straight or flush
