That's why I think we need zoom triple stud tables, but no zoom stud\stud8\razz tables.

+1 Don't increase to more than 6 tables.

Nice to see the higher stakes getting some love but still be nice to see some bridging levels at micros.

0.08/0.16 NL is still missing and a 0.02/0.05 PLO would help bridge the gap as well given how much bigger .05/0.1 PLO plays to 0.01/0.02

I'm ok with 4 per gametype limit but they should increase the overall limit! I can stroke my mushroom tip while playing 6 tables! And i'm not even a hardcore grinder...

I think one of the issues with having more than 4 tables per limit is that at times when the player pool is small during off-peak times sometimes it will take forever to get dealt into the next hand after you quick-fold.

Steve, please add some games to the "Other" tab in the zoom lobby. Stud/razz would be awesome.

Just because 5 people can play 40 tables without slowing down the games shouldnt be the reason for it to be allowed.

I can play 8 tables of zoom too, but the zoom games are already slowing down because of this 6 table cap.

It doesnt matter if YOU can do it, alot of people will do it and can't handle it. Its ruining the games, stop complaining please.

maybe they should open NL500, instead of NL400 and NL600 ?

It looks like 200nl is the highest game that can run 24 7 at the moment. If they add higher it will be 400nl, and theres little chance of anything above that at least this year.

This is definitely a problem and not because of a lag, i have seen that happening when i have a fastest internet and i am only playing 1 table.

I recommend a total timebank (preflop only) of 10 seconds. But it's a global timebank (1 for all tables) and it starts to drain after 2 seconds, 5 seconds if somebody has already opened the action ahead of you. Postflop timebank should remain substantial and per-table.

Rush had no preflop time bank.

They should make some promotions.

Depends on if it's FR or 6max and how you define smoth. I renenber 100nl FR on FT post black friday often had some hand delays with the pool at the low end of a hundred. But it still went fairly well. For 6max it's less.

If you try to run FR with only say 20 players there will be a fair bit of waiting. This may be what you would have a low traffic times with 400nl at best.
