i play 10 tables, play super dooper NL tight, and i get plenty of action and play enough hands to keep me busy (if not, i'd play another 5 tables  ). |

Though jojo recommendations of 10 tables would give me a headache. Done 7-8 before but too many for me; 4 is good. |

Chips: 554 | | | Re: I run good: or...is it just this easy? but it still really boring to have to play super dooper tight NL tight no matter how many tables. I used to play 6-8 6max NL tables and it's still boring. Quote:

Maybe we're just action junkies?  | How can you be bored playing 6-max? I can understand full ring, since you have to play really tight, but you can do all kinds of crazy stuff at 6-max. And, yeah, just play more tables until you aren't bored. You might not play as well, but it doesn't matter if you're playing lowish stakes. |

Chips: 554 | | | Re: I run good: or...is it just this easy? Lol I just feel like a robot when I play NL. I kinda do playing limit to but, there always seems to be an important decision to make which keeps me paying attention. I also played way to tight in NL 6max which made me bad/bored with it. Quote:

But nothing can match the terror of facing a river all-in when you have no idea if you have the best hand or not. It doesn't happen that often, but it does happen. |
