It depends what site(s) you play on and how many tables you are playing - the poker rooms have different sized tables.

Prima/Ladbrokes is the best for the mini tables (other sites have mini tables, but they're not as clear/smooth)

Beyond that, the key is the resolution that your monitor (and graphics card) can support .....

My main monitor (I have dual monitors) is a 23" screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1200. You can comfortably fit 9 mini Prima/Ladbrokes tables on this without overlap. (I limit myself to 6 on this screen, so that I have space for the Poker Tracker/Gametime+ Stats) However only 2 boss tables will fit without overlap (4 has minimal overlap)

thanks GaF
I reckon four tables is the max I'll need.
Bodog have faily good mini tales too, althogh I think a better feel for the game is got on bigger tables.
So, I suppose the bigger the screen size the better for my purposes.
Only drawback there is the dosh needed......
Off to google those 23" screens...bet I'm in for a shock
