Marc Karam FTP Rush maniac? - Poker News

He's playing:

4x Fullring .5/1, 4x 6max .5/1
4x Fullring 1/2, 4x 6max 1/2

Thought it was interesting...if the crazy grinders are already 16 tabling rush then just delete.

Yeah I spotted this yesterday actually. I've no idea how he's managing it although I doubt the legitimacy of it. 8 Rush entries at 6max would be difficult enough as is, without bringing FR into it.

I 8 table rush as my main game (4 6m and 4 FR) and i find it doable (time out prob once ever 10 minutes on a mundane decision). I would prefer to do 8 tables of 6max with 4 at each level, but it's just too crazy. I have no idea how one would 16 table rush. it's just ****ing ridiculous.

I know you're just ****ing around, but it's not a matter of screen space. It's a matter of making so many decisions so quickly. 8 tables of 6max rush is on the border or being not doable. Adding 8 more of FR to this is just insanity.

At a certain point wouldn't you be playing the same amount or less hands when adding another table?

With the quickfold option you really determine how many hands you get in at each table, so I think past lets say 6 tables the benefit is marginal.

If you stack all the tables you carn't really do this. I normally 4 table rush 6max and find it easy, however never tryed more. I agree with you that any more than 16 would be impossible. I would like to see someone play 16, if he does the challenge maybe we will see some of it.

Yeah, I pointed this out in the official Rush thread yesterday. I found it motivating so I tried 6-tabling Rush FR (just .05/.10 and .02/.05). I could keep up, but it wasn't easy, even nitting it up. I am certain I missed a few easy steal situations just because I need to auto-fold to handle other action. I can conceive of eventually expanding to maybe 8 tables of FR, and not much else. 8 of 6-max and 8 of FR at the same time is just mind bottling!

he's a red pro and gets 100% RB right? Plus $35/hr just to play? If he can break even his hourly rate has gotta be over $150.

He recently posted a thread about a 10hr session he did and being ~50 buyins up in that time. His MGR for that session was $1700. I believe that was 12 tabling rush (8 FR and 4 6m). So hourly RB would be $170/hr plus $35 for redpro = $205/hr just for playing. Epic.

he must be using some drugs. dude might actually seriously damage his health, if he will try to play 16 rush tables during that prop bet for 24 hours, this will not end well.

I can do 8 tiled plo 6max quite easily with a mouse and typing bets in.

So a stack of 16 with AHK should be, although very hard to maintain for long periods of time, doable, especially with full ring in the mix.

he plays looser than the average 6max players too. no idea how he does it. and i wouldn't be surprised if he gets the same hands per hour 12tabling and 16tabling.
