    I play two 4-man HU SnGs at a time. I don't have ADD like most poker players so I've never been good at multi-tabling, so you can imagine how adapting to two HU tables was like with all the action. Muting the stars sound effects helps. Anyway I did adapt and I am now very comfortable with two tables but would not try more than that.

    Alright yeah, I was 4 tabling made a bit but feel more comfortable playing 3 tables. Anyone else besides me wish the 2nd round of the 4 players were 1500 chips as well, I know the blinds are proportional but I'm just so used to the 1500 chips I wish it wouldn't change.

    Always two, sometimes 3 if I'm 100% concentrated.

    Mike, yes - I usually have no problems making it to the 2nd table (unless I'm donked) but it's there at the 2nd table that I lose. I just play differently when my stack isn't 1500 and not starting at 10/20. Oh well, just need a 50% win rate to turn a profit.

    Alright wow so I guess 2 or 1 seem to be the consensus. I thought 4 was pretty plausible but I just wasn't all the way used to it yet. I guess I'll stick with 3 for now and see what happens. Thanks..
