Anyone tempted to be the first to give it a go?

do you think the fish will follow to these stakes or is this level going to be full of nits and regs?

(1) it's 10AM, (2) not everyone knows it's in "medium" stakes and (3) we are far from reaching enough people for a decent game, so people aren't going to want to play "short-handed"

Would you drop with the 10am stuff. Not everybody lives in America ya know?

It's the evening time in Asia and late afternoon/early evening throughout Europe. There are currently over 68,000 players on FTP. Obviously this is not the peakest of peak times, but it's not exactly deserted.

I think this may be the reason for many players to not notice NL200 rush poker. I myself just found out now cause I had my filter only on micro and low too.

I am running good at Rush (10 buy ins or ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS PPL), and so I like it. If I ran badly I'd probably never play again, but I seriously don't know how anyone can resist getting so many hands in.

besides the point that it may or may not have been live for a couple of days now,

do you think the average player will give those stakes a go?

for those of you who have seen them for the past couple of days, what s the biggest player pool you ve seen?

I looked at it yesterday and I think the average "entries" was over 2.

Which IMO is bad.(in terms of the toughness of the game)

has anyone tracked the rush poker players at nl100 and lower? i wonder how it is trending.

i think they should randomize player ids but that is just my two cents.

I broke even for the first three days at Rush. Then the boomswitch hit and I ran like a god at 10NL over the weekend. Up now 16 buy-ins, $160 at Rush Poker. Plus $27 RB.

i am running so bad over the last 19k hands its ridiculous. i have won with As 3 times out of over 100. mostly losing after being AI PF to 4s, Qs, Ks, 8s, etc. no matter what i do, i just lose. i'll be up for 50 hands, then lose the next 200 to suck outs. i guess if i hold on long enough the variance will even out and i'll make a killing, but its not fun waiting for that part. the worst was calling on the button with 6 5 suited to an EP raise with a big stack. SB called, flop came 6 6 5. SB checked, raiser bet the pot, i called, SB raised the pot, EP called, i shoved and both called. SB turns over Qs, EP turns over 7s. the turn is a Q. i also have run into quads with the nut boat 10 times for stacks now. down about 20BIs. not bad considering

Best solution for HM not turning Rush into hudbotlandia:

Give the player a CHOICE to play anonymously. Stealth mode will randomize your avatar and username.

Introduces the solution with the most chaos factor.

(all I ask for this great idea FTP, is RAKEBACK ON MY UNAFFILIATED ACCOUNT)
