you can squeeze out a

you can squeeze out a positive roi mass mult tabling. there is a guy on stars who 16 tables with pretty good success. I think the norm is 2-4 for not missing too much.

Some guys like ricestud,

Some guys like ricestud, primo, skates, heybude and that one guy (hneaves maybe?  I always confuse him with this other guy on 2p2) have regularly played 4+ tables with overall success.I think 1-2 is standard, 3 is a little less common and 4-5 are uncommon (6+ very rare) among successful players.One thing I have noticed, and I want to be careful because the sample I'm talking about is between maybe a half dozen players for a few thousand games each at very high stakes, but I've seen some of the guys I mention above have some pretty insane swings at times.  I would guess that their ROI per table drops when playing so many tables, but their hourly goes up, at least in general.Most high stakes pros and coaches suggest that newer players play one table only, at least until they are winning at a very nice rate at the $50+ levels.  That said, I would personally say it's ok to add another table if you really feel you must, even if you're not killing the $50s.  I didn't personally add a 2nd table until the $115s, and some players almost never do (h2olga, livb, spamz are three very good players that have publicly mentioned they prefer 1 tabling).

Looks like he gets in about

Looks like he gets in about 11-12 games per hour (just basing on his last 50 games) at the $30 level where he has the 9% ROI.Certainly solid/impressive, but wouldn't he consistently get 20+ games in per hour at that level if he were 5 or 6 tabling regularly?His turbo ROI is 6% which is also very solid for a 3+ table player at those levels.
