what do people think of constantly ditching tables (online) in favor of ones that you think are better because they have higher players/flp percentage or u think players are weaker there etc.

i emphasize constantly because im sure most people think it's ok to leave a table if it gets to tough for them, but im not talking only about that obvious instance

Depending on your winrate.

If you play and win 4ptbb/100 then losing 20 min to find a better table in order to win 1ptbb more is a waste of time.

If you make 1ptbb/100 then losing 20 min to win 2ptbb/100 is worth it.

Obv. it's depending on how much time you spend seeking a better table comparing to the effective increase of your winrate.

Also, don't see why you posted this here.

probably one of the more guilty parties @ this.
usually tho, since i'm trying 2 glom onto fpp's as well, i'll commonly stay for a full orbit, or at least until the blinds hit. And this is usually after i've gone thru the waiting list and getting ready 2 post @ another table.

I play more omaha then anything else, playing regs reaps alot less then taking ten mins to look for a couple of fish with nice Br's, but play alot of holdem

i should have posted it more as a question of etiquette. im already thinking it likely profitable to jump around frequently in the 6-hand low limit for juicy tables, basically where high player/flop percentage is. what im really wondering is if this is really poor etiquette in other peoples' opinions. also, i play on pkstars which is so convenient for quickly bouncing from one table to another, i would say moreso than any other site ive been to, because the lobby kicks butt there. (i also like their tables much more)

right now im on a very good table tho, no need to change anytime soon at the moment : ) : )

I can't imagine that anyone would consider this poor etiquette.
