Being dealt out of hands when multi-tabling on Party or Empire

[beach_bum]

Just wondering when playing 5 or more tables on Party or Empire, what is the best way to know that it is your turn on a table. It seems that when you have a couple of difficult decisions it is too easy to miss your turn and be dealt out of the next hand on another table. Are there any special tricks that anyone uses to reduce the amount of times you end up getting dealt out? I have three monitors, so all the games are visible all the time. This isn't really a problem on Stars, because you can immediately click "I'm Back" and not miss a hand, but Party's software seems retarded in this area.
Thanks

On party, after you get dealt out, double click the option in the bottom left corner, then your dealt in the next hand.

play fewer tables, click the auto-fold buttons or bet-pot buttons, dont play party, dont wait for your opponents action (do something else while they are thinking, even if you're in a big hand), use the sound so u can hear the annoying BEEP BEEP BEEP when its your turn,

thats all i can think of for now

Why are you using three monitors? Get a regular 20, 24, or even a 30 dell. Then you surely won't miss any hands.

Can you squeeze 10 tables on one of those bad boys? How much do they cost? My eyes are starting to fail since I am 9 tabling on a freaking laptop screen with the smallest table sizes party offers.

Also, can you hook up one of those monitors to a laptop? If so, how?

Grimstarr, although I don;t play as many tables as you, I am still interested in doing the same thing. My friends have told me to get this Dell UltraSharp 2001FP 20" LCD Monitor. Im not 100% sure on how to use it once you get stuff connected, but I still haven't purchased it yet. Anyways you can get it for like 371.20 which is supposedly a great deal for this monitor.

here is the link. http://www.slickdeals.net/#p7338

you should be able to find it from there.

I doubt it. You can only have a screen size as large as your video card supports.

For the stakes your are talking about, you can get a desktop to handle the display of the new screen pretty cheaply.

And if you still prefer laptops, get a new one that can handle the video output.
