Re: petetition for Stud-ZOOM !

The main reason to petition for it is that it'll probably make the non-zoom games sooooo much better. Although it'll also kill them. That's what happened with PLO8 on FTP. Everything south of 1/2 went away all the way down to about .10/.25, but THOSE tables got so much better.

Why? The appeal of zoom-type games is that nits can play hands continuously instead of 1/5. But... loose/terrible players *already do this*. So why would they like zoom? Rush PLO8 just became huge nitfest territory very fast and the normal tables became gold mines.

After ,Holdem, PLO and omaha8 limit and pot limit, I would rank stud8 as the 4th most popular poker game. Should do better than the 5draw

Re: petetition for Stud-ZOOM !

i agree that stud8 would be the best choice (and stud would be very good, too).
no matter if its standard, crazy pineapple or half-pot-limit.
stud hi would be great to disturb the cheating chinese,
they will get utterly insane, trying to share holecards in zoom, lol.

i think any stud8/stud would benefit from half-pot-limit to attract new players
and avoid cannibalism of the straight limit tables.
im just tired of the automatic answers from ideas@pokerstars.com.
when we have some more posts in here, i will talk to pokerstars-steve
or someone else from stars on here, and link them to this thread.

Re: petetition for Stud-ZOOM !

What is the point? Currently there is 0 people playing LHE zoom and 0 people playing higher than $0.05/$0.10 omaha8.
Why would stud games be any different.

Re: petetition for Stud-ZOOM !

it would be great if there were enough players for zoom. The problem is 1/2 the time there are not enough players to fill a regular table. Is it a good idea to thin the field even more by spreading out the players to zoom?

what is the point of your post ?
i prefer not to post, if i have only negative things to say, but everyone is different.

stud games are perfect for zoom, because rembering the board-cards is way easier at 1-2 zoom tables than it is at 4-8 normal tables.
in addition, the half-pot-limit format could attract new players who are sick of holdem but not stupid enough to play micro/smallstakes PLO, where rake is 3 times of the winrates from good players.

stud hi is very popular, but cheating chinese ruin the game,
if stud hi zoom would run, they would have a hard time to cheat.
