Do you ever plan on posting a 8-10 tabling 5/10 vid on the site? I would really like to see that. You seem to be the only one who still advocates playing many tables at higher stakes and still wins tons.
What do you do if u feel like you're slipping off your A game. Do you generally just try and play through? How often do you close all your tables and rest a bit?
How do you readjust to the regs adjustments to your game? What % of the regs do you think hardly change their game against you at all and what % are constantly changing their style? How much do you value game flow on individual tables when making decisions? if you do value it how do you keep track while playing a ton of tables?
Due to Camtasia (recording software) limitations I can not make a video showing more than 4 tables at once.
I don't really play less than my A game very often thanks to my mental game coach Jared Tendler who is our Stoxpoker mental game guru. When I do find myself a little tilted, which has become somewhat rare these days, I just get off the tables and take some time away to cool off and then coem back later.
I think that most of the 10/20 and up regs do a pretty darn good job of adjusting their game to their opponents. 5/10 is a little more hit or miss when it comes to this but overall they do a pretty decent job.
I think that game flow is very important and often times it plays a huge role in my decisions at the table. I honestly can't tell you how I do it because I have no idea. To play the stakes I play and play as many tables as I play at once and have such a high WR makes me a bit of a freak of nature I suppose. Lots of people could probably win some at 10/20 and up, but to do it while playing 10 tables for hours and hours at a time I think is something that really can not be explained. I don't know of anyone else that does it and maybe I just have some sort of weird ability to hyper focus. I did see a brain dr. (not sure what they are called) and he told me I have hyper focus ADD. So maybe that explains it. Not sure though really.
