something needs to be done about how often you post the SB. sucks when you post SB three times in a row and then have to post BB next table because you're the person who's gone the longest without posting it.

either need to randomize the blinds, or just have antes.

We seem to have a massive change in opinion some people saying its a lag game for lots of stealing. Then there's those who are nitting it up. I was playing earlier and a lag style seemed to be working. I then logged on for another station and there was a hell of a lot of 3 betting pre and a nit style seemed to be the best option. I played about 750 hands each session. Anyone think it could be possible that we start to see trends of up and down looseness as people try to react to players? Obviously the fish are always gonna play the same, but between the thinking players and at the higher stakes?

When do the rush tournaments start! Now that should be interesting! Fold and be in a completely new table with a new hand? There will be no single table players just playing one table..why would they?
Im going home to check it out, but it seems quite the bad idea....ur not even playing with the same people???

Brilliant. +1 for Rush Poker. I'm there to stay.

This + one million...what are they gonna do without their HUD??? About time this happened. I am lmao at the complaints that you can't get a read...you don't read when you multi table anyway...you use your HUD

Another note...see what all the complaining about the SStackers got us? A table with all the 50BB players to plays vs. shorties, and another way for the former 55/25 player/action junkies to get the same action yet play tighter.
I think it sucks.

In before "transfer me some ftp for stars because of rush"

From what I have experienced so far, once someone raises pre, they are most likely sticking with that hand no matter what.

Is anybody else running into raise 3bet shoves like all the time.

ps. I run bad at posting the blinds. just observed 4 bb post in a row sick life

pps. this is a go with happy hour. Will finish up my christmas bonus so much faster and might even try out that iron man thingy

Really though, we still get HH, there is no reason that a hud wont work, then what are all you people saying "LOL HUDBOTS" going to do? Will just make it harder for you guys to get reads, and no effect "hudbots" at all.

Some thoughts about Rush at FR:

People definitely aren't folding to steals/3bets as much, nor cbets. ISO's aren't working since if someone limps then they're likely in it for at least the flop. People are way overdefending, unless the raise is from EP. Definitely exploitable. People are playing way nittier from EP/MP though.

If someone hits the flop they're going forward. I'm seeing people call down large bets with weaker hands and stacking off with overpairs and top pair hands that normally they fold. Waaay looser preflop, myself included.

Now that's an interesting idea. I wonder how much it would change the dynamic of the game, or at least the profitable strategies.

This is so amazing...
On more than one level... The idea is genius, they will make _so_ much more rake from this. It's something completely new and will probably revive poker a bit. I can't help but thinking that this has changed online poker at least for a little bit.

It will be interesting to see what the verdict on this is once the dust settles. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. It's possible this will wind up pissing regs off more than shortstacking did.

No table selection.
No seat selection.
No waiting lists, either.

Yes I will

I have played a couple brief sessions of this and haven't had time to read the whole thread but I have a question.

Is this shortstacker heaven or what?
