I was wondering what tactics people that play lots of tables at once(deep or short) use. I imagine you would just stick to premium hands but is it profitable in the long run playing 10/12/16 tables at once as you can be picked on by anyone that puts you to difficult decisions i.e. good players who see what you're doing...

I can play up to 15 tables but usually i stay with 10/11 and yes Its abc poker, but using programs like holdem manager you can see if someone is stealling and take measures against. And if you play tight agressive when you reraise they will take you serious. When im tired i still play but with more than 6 tables my EV is lower, but compensates in rakeback sometimes.
I play nl25 whats makes it easier because the level of the villains
I usually oly play like 4 tables, sometimes when I really feel like playing I play 6 - 7 tables, playing more only results in bad descissions and losses (for me personally). limiting myself to play only 4 to 7 tables gives me the oppertunity to react quicker when a player starts stealing my blinds or raising my pots.

Hwat you can do to make it easier and give more time to the table you need it for is that you can auto fold as fast as you see a bad hand you wont play and then go over to the next table. I play 8 table on full tilt as it is the maximum if you dont request for more.
I play 9 tables at once and often get bored so I look for next ones during my breaks but my screen size allows me only 9 tables so if I open more of them, I have to put them over the other ones and sometimes it's pretty hard to se wheter I do have a move or not

well, that allways depends on the limit and type of holdem you play.
i suppose its not that hard to play like 15 tables fixed limit lowest limits, i.e to build up a bankroll. cant imagine there are ppl who play more than 10 tables deep nl. and i still get crazy hearing of that guy who played some 60 sngs in one hour with profit
