Table Ninja and AHK scripts

Ive never really used Table Ninja or AHK scripts but I can only play 4 or 6 tables comfortably on my 24" monitor if I tile the tables and want to play more.

Why - because I understand the secret to making poker online is probably based on the volume of games you play. The best players (or highest earners) like MI_TURTLE, KENNL, SHARK365 etc all multi-table at least 10 tables at the same time.

So I downloaded table ninja and tried it. I also downloaded some AHK scripts and tried using them. I tried using table ninja and the AHK scripts at the same time - this seems to work ok. I practiced initially using $1 Sngs and stacking 10-12 tables then slowly moving up in stakes. I liked the AHK scripts that allowed me to move tables out the stack if there was interesting action but leave them in the stack when I folded.

Next I tried a few days of multi-tabling a large number of 90 man SnGs on Full Tilt just to see how much profit I could turn. Based on a really small sample I found this would be profitable for me but not by much. I need to do this with bigger stakes.

So I changed strategy and played a few days of multi-tabling large low-cost MTTs using the tools. I did have a few deep finishes, including a couple of final tables.

The net result - these tools are useful. I struggled with Table Ninja auto-bet sizes because they were hard to figure out. Other than that I liked the easy one key folds, calls etc and ability to move the tables around.

I think I will continue to use these tools when I want to grind a lot of tournaments.
