i don't like the big blind posting policy. this way guys who are playing really fast and nitty are getting an edge. they should make it random like the other positions.

btw guys, complete hand histories of hands that you folded and instantly moved to another table are saved after they are completed.

Well, I thought I'd give it a quick 10 min sesh. As people have said, it's not poker but I can tell you it's good fun if you haven't tried it before. There are a lot of fish on there who only bet if they have something and check if they have nothing - so, to a certain extent you can play poker on a very low level against them. The game obviously rewards tightness - I'm a typical short handed player with ave VPIP but for this 9-handed Rush game I folded anything that wasn't a PP or AJ+.

I do recommend you give it a try if you haven't already - just for a laugh at least.

It's really, really bad.

+FT is ultra-rigged. Got it in 3 times ahead in Rush and lost, quickest 3 buyins I've ever lost.

To those whining about it being a nitfest, what do you do when your opponent is a nit, hint, the answer isn't "complain on the internet".

Recreational players are going to love this type of poker.

Yea, this really sucks for us as others have mentioned, but it will generate more rake for FTP and that's what they care about.

I just realized if you click 'join now' again you can multi-table the same rush game.

It's just crazy, just two tables of full ring and you can get 500 hands per hour.

Dang. One of the players I have marked as a fish is playing 4 tables of Rush right now. Hope he doesn't blow his whole roll today.

I guess you have to get used to opening up players' note boxes, and pawing through Last Hand to take notes. If I tried this thing, I'd have to do a lot more color-coding than I do now. So I would only need to look at notes for postflop. Right now, my color-coding is for table selection, which is useless.

They are massively profitable right now cuse u can raise 83s UTG 9 handed and no1 will call you with less than AJs or setmining idiots. When they miss the flop you take it down.

sweet

shame ftp won't let me buy in for some reason

would be great at the mashing game

it also encourages you to nit it up much more than you think

you can quite easily fold 30 ****ty hands in the time it takes to play out a hand to the river

it might even be +ev to fold in bb rather than wait for it to get back to you in which case minraising might become the norm in lp

etc etc
