Best way to maximise profit

lastpoet22

I'm wondering what the best way

Is to maximise the profit when I play

Should I multitable on low stake?

Or would it be clearly a mistake ?

What about moving up to other games ?

But surely I will bump into well known names ?

What approach do you suggest ?

Please, will you help me in my quest ?

What do you do at the moment and how profitable is it?

But between the following
Which one is more interesting ?

two cash tables at 2/4p
one cash table at 4/8p

The money is the same
But which one leads to fame ?

I'm sorry that I can't manage Rupert Bear-like rhyming couplets but one thing to consider is that playing 2 tables @ 4p is not the same as playing one table at 8p.

The amount of cash you have in play at any one time would be the same but only half of it can be at risk in any one hand. The number of tables that you play does not affect the general BRM rules.  Playing two tables in parallel or serially should make no difference to BRM considerations.

Regarding the bankroll consideration
I willingly put it out of the question

So playing two tables is less risky
Than doubling the blinds to 4 and 8p ?

I would say that that is so
As would others in the know

actually # of tables does affect BRM really,  as # tables goes up your winrate goes down, which means you experience bigger & longer downswings, therefore you need a larger roll

It's not the most scientific way of doing it - but it's better than guesswork*.

Play 10 hours on 1 table and work out what you're average hourly profit was

Play 10 hours at 2 tables and work out what you're average hourly profit was

Repeat for 3 and 4 tables - if you're still in profit at 4 tables then go up a level in the stakes and repeat

Eventually you'll reach a certain level of stakes with a certain number of tables where you'll be losing money.

At this point you'll have a record of stakes v number of tables and you can just pick the one which gave you the highest hourly rate - that's the way to maximise profit.

* more scientifically would be to increase the 10 hours to 100 hours, even better would be to cover 10,000 hands at a time - this would give you a really good result but might take a while
