How do you prefer to arrange the tables when you play online poker?

First three are self-explanatory. "Something else" would include things like 3rd party software to manage tables (i.e. to bring out tables where you have a hand then return them to a stack the rest) or a combination of stacking and tiling like having eight tables arranged with two layers of a 2x2 grid. But basically having a stack and occasionally bringing out a table manually when it is of special importance still counts as stacking.

3x3 w/ 2 tables is each stack using 3rd party tools.

I prefer to "Stack and Tile" using a program by the same name.

^ That would be the "something else" option.

I mostly stack at the moment, but I used to tile.

If anyone prefers cascading I would be interested to hear what they perceive as the advantages over stacking.

Harder to misclick (if you don't use hotkeys) when the buttons are in different places comapred to stacked tables when the tables are jumping.

Tile if 9 or less tables, multistack otherwise.

I've always found cascading really weird and hard to follow.

Tile.

1% roi button clicking zombies stack imo. Only relates to tournaments i have never played cash seriously but years back when when there was much less post flop play in mtts was easy to mass table and print. Now everyone calls every raise every hand is alot more involved and takes more concentration. Tile a reasonable amount of tables and don't auto pilot.

I definitely tile, but I understand that some don't have the real estate to do so especially on laptops. Tables can get very tiny when tiled on some laptops.

I don't understand how you can be profitable playing multiple big buy-in MTTs if you aren't tiling. I usually have 6 open at a time max so I can follow the action. This is on Ignition, though, where there aren't displays/add-ons tracking everyone's action. I have to manually see who is being active and bluffing.

If I could play on Stars I would probably 9-table tile.
