+1 million.
very practical solution.
a bonus would be to keep the notes you have on a player (even though they are playing under a diff alias).
Edit: I guess pineapple888 points out that even notes would allow for use of stats?

FTP Doug

It would be great to see FTP implement 2nl/5nl rush poker.

Thanks

so many times i'll be playing and i finish the day with 1,950 base full tilt points and only get 10 medals. But if i played for just a little bit more and made 2000 full tilt points i woulda got 20 medals. Can you make it so that you can get partial medals like how you give partial points. so if i make 1950 points in a day i would get 19 medals instead of 10. that wouldd be sooo great.

Those 10 Medals are worth, at most, $2. Relative to all the rake you paid to get to 1950 points, that's trivial. Yes, i accept that $2 is better than no dollars.

Anyway, the point of all-or-nothing benchmarks like that are to get people to play that little bit extra. If they pro-rate bonus, there's not a "big" target ahead for a player to aim for. I realize that this removes any impetus to cause a player who's far away from a milestone to play more (where a pro-rated bonus would provide a very small one). However, i suspect that player habits/psychology would recommend FullTilt to use the all-or-nothing scheme, even ignoring the money they save by not giving single Medals.

Doug

Please add a chat box to the Rush Table Lobby to allow chat between players in the same player pool. When my AA gets cracked by 32o I can type "Nice hand sir!" and everyone can see it and reply. It would also mean we can chat with the pros in our pool.

Do you realize that there are hundreds of players in a single Rush pool? Pooled chat in the lobby would be an incoherent mess.

Yeah. But add webcam support and a couple of chicks showing cleavage, and you have... well... the rest of the Interwebs, I guess.

Doug: Rush Poker owns! I want to be able to take notes easier though. Can you guys add a way to open notes on a player from the lobby pool and from the hand replayer?

Also, and I know you probably won't put this in. Can you add a way to auto-much certain hands from certain positions? It'd be much easier if the game just auto-folded Q3o from MP.

Wouldn't it be much easier if you could just turn on the poker game, go grab a beer, then come back the next day and see how much you won/lost?

Oh wait, that's the lottery.

Great idea for aliases in rush. I love my HUD, but I'd really like to see rush kept HUD-free.

That's one queer request. Why not just ask for an auto raise 3X the BB + 1 for every limper with certain hands and auto continuation bet?

Come on guys you get Q3o way less than AKo, so it's not such a big deal!

Maybe have a separate AUTO-RUSH-POKERS for us that need a little help auto-folding certain hands for us.


Or please add a tool tip to our hands like the following
1. Fold it (you've met the 2000 points for the day don't need to generate more rake)
2. Limp it (you only have 63 FTP points so if you limp there a better chance to have a multiway pot and capping the rake for the hand thus more FTP points weeeeeeeeee!)
3. Raise it (you have Iron man for the month already so play like one)
4. Quick fold it (Thank you for playing RUSH POKERS)

you must work for fulltilt.

anyways pokerstars flattened out their supernova elite program to benefit the lower milestones because they are super awesome and they care about their players. Iron man is no where near as awesome as SNE, but the least they could do is flatten out the daily medals to make their program more competitive.

here's the way it is now:
0-499 points = 0 medals
500 points = 2 medals
1000 points = 5 medals
1500 points = 10 medals
2000 points = 20 medals

how about you make it 1 medal for every 100 points you earn but you have to make a minimum of like 300 points or something.

so something like this:
0-299 points = 0 medals
300 points = 3 medals
400 points = 4 medals
500 points = 5 medals
etc.

- Yep. This is being worked on right now and should be ready (with a couple of other cool, related options) in one of the next couple of updates.

Please add 800x600 support for Standard view lobby OR add Rush to Classic view lobby.

+1 on the no-HUD suggestion, but only if you can enforce it properly (which i seriously doubt)

keep rush hud-free +2

200nl is ssnl not msnl - why does it not show up by default in the rush lobby? You have to click medium stakes.
