This morning I tried 20-tabling $5.20 DON..

Nov 16 2008, 10:38 AM

     So this morning I had a few hours to myself and saw I was only 60 away from 500 total, or half my goal.  I decided to almost double my load and do 3 sessions of 20 tables each session.   
     My first 2 sessions went very well.  I went 13/20 in both of them.  My final session I ran a little bad and was in line to go 10/10 with one left.  I was 2nd in chips and then after 3 hands I was low stack, then out.  I think I doubled every short stack at the table.  I don't have the HH which pisses me off.  I guess when you re-install stars it unclicks the option to save HH.  All 3 hands where all-in pre.  AA<AK, AQ<A2, and 99<33.  To be honest I'll take running bad 3 times in one instead of losing hands like this in 3 different.
     So after 60 played in 3 hours I sat at 35/60 or about 58% win rate or 12.18% ROI.  So i decided to do some math and figure out which would be more profitable hourly, just kinda figuring each session is an hour.  While 20 tabling I would have to run 56% or better to maintain the same as running 60% 10 tabling. 
     Here are my stats for my first 500 DON, and they are just about right on point. 


Played 500
Wins 303
Loses 197
ITM % 60.60%
Buy-in $2,500.00
Rake $100.00
Total $2,600.00
Won $3,030.00
Profit $430.00
ROI 16.54%
per game $0.86

I was curious to know how many tables you normally play?  I play 4 to 5 tables and run between 13.00 - 14.5 ROI.  I just started SNG's ealier last month because I took a big hit to my Bankroll playing cash games.  I was 4 tabling $50NL running at about 7.29 BB/100.  Then I tried 6 tabling and fell to a  -3.29 BB/100.  Needless to say I'm re focusing and playing SNG's again.  Slowly rebuilding my BR at which time I plan to make a run at both :)   Anyway I was always wondered how people can play that many tables.  I assume you cascade the tables and use hot keys...Even so very impressive.  Any advice for a 4-5 tabler???
