I usually play 6player tables because I like the speed and you can open up your starting hands a bit, but with this rush-poker I can play 9 players and a more patient style without sitting around or multi-tabing like 4+ tables.

They aren't lying, this is innovation is one of the most revolutionary to ever hit on-line poker. I highly recommend at least throwing $30 on there and try the micro cash games.

I wonder if something like this can be used for tourneys? Not sure if it would be possible, probably not, but I hate how long and drawn out tourneys can be but I also hate the turbo tourneys with the accelerated blind structure. Even if it could just speed up the beginning of tourneys that would be cool.

I love how no one can get tabs on my game. I can use the same techniques over and over it's awesome.

For people saying it's a nit fest, you realize you're still paying blinds, right? So the correct strategy can't be to play 7% of your hands.

I think it's good now because all the fish want to test it out but in 2-3 months it'll be a nit fest.
completely agree with this.

Be interesting to see how this evolves over the next few months, but for right now, the 10nl 6max fish are giving it away like schoolgirls on prom night.
Up over 6 buy-ins in under 500 hands.

I played for about half an hour. Bought in light as possible $10 at 25nl.



Heres the thing. Its all about absolute hand strength. HUD cannot keep up. You have zero reads. If you make a read (like I called a striaght and won on a four flush board, that guy is gone and there is no time to take a note, which you have to put in FTP notes cause again, HUD cannot keep up, all my notes on thousands of makrals are now useless).



Its more like video poker in my view than normal poker. No reads, no table dynamic. Furthremore, playing you get into gambling mode. I am susecptable to this as I suppose many, but not all players are. You are clicking away getting that mental stimulation that is akin to slots. You Can take your time, but will you?



I dont like it for these reasons. Moreover, I am concerned that this is exactly where the fish will go. To the rush tables to gamble it up, leaving a bunch of regs to fight and grind it out at the normal tables.



Rake and blinds. Supposedly the players who have not paid blinds recently are more likely to end up in the blinds upon talbe assignment. It seems to work ok. Things go so fast though, it seems you pay more rake (you do see more hands, but again, what kind of hands ? a bunch of hands that have to be played on absolute hand strength and position only).



All in all my initital impression is this is more gambling and less skill based than a normal ring game. Which is of course the last thing online poker needs atm. FML maybe Im going back to stars.

You think there's something that guarantees an equal number of hands now?

Please make it so I can multitable another table within the same limit.

I want to be able to play 2 $50 NL 9 max Rush Pokerz....it can't be that hard to make the software not seat me at the same table if I am already assigned to that table.

My first reaction is its fun. Great way to blow off some steam like Super Turbo SNG's. Wouldn't mind seeing it at higher BI's. I hope it doesn't kill the regular games with time though.

Seems like there are some big stacks around. Will be interesting to see how deep some people get, since there is no possibility of a Rush table dying. Ofcourse nobody will be able to observe it ...

So glad i put money on tilt for Christmas. This is a pretty good lil thing imo, kinda like a super turbo multitable cash game.
I wanted to just test it out and like 4 hours later i'm finally jest getting off the table seeing 2+2 with a ton of post. I tried to "multitable" the rush games and found it to be pretty sick.

I think I have a good strat for this thing but I don't really play much hold'em nowadays. Went up like 4 buy ins down 2 up 8 decided to play a nit and overbet the nizlutz and it looks to be working a ton.

Since i multitable cash w/o a hud anyway I dont really see any difference with the exception of the increased hands/hr and people who do not know how to fold.

Please to be adding plo tables full tilt kthx

This would be novel on a h4h basis in a MTT, but as I said in another thread, this will be the mortgage backed securities of the Full Tilt economy. You're going to need people to deposit a lot of money to keep this up. This is basic account churning. If there was ever a game to argue for a timed rake, this is it.
