I just popped around a few tables, trying to decide which to join, when I noticed there was a player sat at every table, AND it was also playing in several games too.
How did the same account sit at so many tables? And why? cheers. |

at 11:16 AM, Monday August 6, 2007 EDT that makes some sense, but this guy was playing the bottom ranked tables... well, i say playing, he might have ben playing one game but the rest he was just taking seats up... half a dozen or more... i've seen people play mutli-table chess, maybe he wanted a bigger challange? lol
cheers. |

at 12:04 PM, Monday August 6, 2007 EDT Well, my experience has shown that playing multiple games only gives a momentary benefit. ONly once did I almost win on both i was playing (If my internet didn't crap out on me)
Usually, i would do well on one game, lose terribly on another, so it defeats the purpose. Then there are games where both suck, as you can imagine. So, don't do it unless you can assure positive points on both. And, I rarely do this, and I don't open two browsers, but it shouldn't be considered cheating since you more often than not lose points or gain very little |

at 5:08 AM, Tuesday August 7, 2007 EDT I did multi-tabling to go down to lowest possible score for fun. Sitting out at multiple tables I could get down to about 1350 but to go down further required active suicide. My lowest score: 1277.

at 9:02 AM, Tuesday August 7, 2007 EDT It's not anything i'm planning on doing myself. I'm a one-table person. I just asked the question when i saw it happening, cos' i didn't understand the reason for it.
thanks. |
