Queens in the small blind.
I got some of my work done and decided to play an hour on Party to try out 3-tabling on my new LCD and clear some bonus hands.
I haven't recorded the monitor on my bankroll spreadsheet yet, but once I do, conventional wisdom dictates that I stick to .50/1 while multi-tabling. Something about 300BB/table or something. Not to mention the fact that I'm actually pretty bad at this Texas Hold'Em thingy and am probably better off playing against people like myself who look at the turn and river as bonus rounds where you get a chance to make a hand after missing the flop.
After playing on some tables that broke up after I won a pot or two (those cowards), I finally got myself on three stable tables when this happened:

When you get the same hand on two tables in the same position at the same time, you might get confused.
"Have I 3-bet? Or have I yet to 3-bet?"
Won one, lost one.
I love having a second monitor. I love 1600x1200. I love it for reasons other than poker. I was working all day with Photoshop and FormZ, and it was great being able to maximize my work window, shove the palettes off to the side, and keep a browser in view at all times. I was uberproductive and even managed to read part 9 of the loser story.

That's not Spaulding. I don't know who it is, but you should check out Numa Numa. Thanks to Film Geek for the link.

That numa numa is some funny stuff - got it in an email from a friend of mine the other day. :) Nice screenshot on the Queens. Oh, jealous on the two-monitors. I have a spare 17" CRT laying around here. Would you recommend a setup of one 17" CRT and one 17" LCD?

I don't know that I would recommend or not recommend that setup... why not just try it out and see how you like it?
