Default 20 tabling $25 NL, full time...

I know it sounds crazy but I'm a ridiculously good multi tasker, slight ADD. I've been playing full time for a year and a half. This is more just me being bored and trying to experiment, but does anyone know if a decent hourly rate is possible with doing this? Are there any problems with this idea that I'm not seeing..for example how hard will it be to beat the rake etc??

Hypathetically 1600 hands and hour x 5bb/100 (each bb is .50) would be $40 an hour. If u run 10bb/100 thats $80. I think it wouldn't be worth the facts that you'll probably die, and if u can play that many tables your better off 8 tabling 100NL or somethin.

6max that's almost impossible, full ring it's sheer boredom.

Move up and play poker for crying out loud.

You would probably be better off playing fewer tables while focusing on improving your game. Chances are you won't have much time to critically think about the hands and improve much if you're 20 tabeling. In the long run if fewer tables and more studying lets you move up in limits then it will be far more profitable to do so.

What do you mean by 'how hard will it be to beat the rake'?

Why would the rake be a greater factor just because you are playing more tables?

I've been doing that for a while but because of a few different life + poker problems I can't take the variance of my usual limits right now. I also don't want to take another break and not be making any money, so i'm trying this out.
