Hello,

I have just begun to multitable SNGs on Pokerstars. I have noticed people referencing AHK and other software. I was wondering if there were any recommendations as to what could be helpful for someone who aspires to multitable 10-12 at a time?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Definitely AHK.

http://www.overcards.com/wiki/moin.cgi/AutoHotKey <--- that will explain the basics of AHK, and links to bout 50 different good scripts for various sites.

http://www.wickss.com/ahk/starshotkeys/readme.html <--- if you play stars, that is by far the best. Will make multitabling ALOT faster and less tedious.

(the link to download the script is in the top left hand corner of that readme page)

Oh also, while AHK will make things alot less tedious, since you can basically control everything just by pressing buttons, you should be able to 10-12 table fine without having to use AHK (even if stacked). Still, a good script (unsure what site you play on so can't tell you one, will make things alot easier, and give you alot more time to think so I do recommend it.

Well, it makes things ALOT less tedious, and gives you alot more thinking time, since you don't have to always be moving your mouse to bring up new tables (theres a script that takes you to a table that needs your attention when you press a button you set). But it's effect is really noticeable as you get to 20+ tables, still it is great to use AHK scripts even if you're only say 8 tabling.

Autoregger, timebank clicker, betpot, table highlighter. Those are usually the ones I use for SNG's on stars, they should all be on the overcards wiki. If not for sure in the software forum.

How does software like table ninja fit in? Is it a compliment or a substitute for the software mentioned?

table ninja pretty much does everything, i dont use anything else. whistl you do have to pay for it, it really is pretty cheap and has paid for itself for me manytimes over (autotimebanking on fast tables which ahks ive used have not done alone makes it worth buying imo). admittedly im a limit player but all the extra features (auto seating, time bank clicking) are worth their weight on gold. it does seem to be pretty impressive in terms of how many options you have for bet sizing for nl folk too.

I don't use anything playing on FTP. Betpot script is pretty important if you play on Stars
