Played on stars regularly for the last 7 months and I have no clue wtf you are talking about.

Yeah I heard about it and I find it ridiculous to think that servers are being overloaded because of one crash. Do you even know how much money they lose during 3 hours?.

This isnt WoW son, with blizzard where everyone has already payed for their **** and basically everyones faces when blizzard servers are down. Where Blizzard dont CARE about the servers being down for 12 hours while for PS its crucial to keep them up 24/7

Thanks, thank you noturn too.

Compared to say 6-9 tabling, how difficult is it to 4 table rush ? I've heard it's "easier" to 4-table rush @ 1k hands/hr than to 12 table @ 1k hands/hr. True ?

definitely true in my experience - you're only going to be in up to 4 post flop spots and your decisions pre are also going to be easier than the post flop decisions. plus there's less need to get into really weird spots because regs are going to play more straight forward given the relative lack of table dynamics, although obviously there will be some in play

In the meantime just stack 16tables on stars and will play like 4 tables of rush.

How long did Tilt promote Rush publicly before they launched? I can't imagine it'll just show up in the lobby. There will be a build up

i mean 6-9 tabling for me is easier than 4 tabling rush but comparing 3 tabling rush with 9 tabling then i would go with 3x rush.
4tabling rush < 12 tabling

How would 6-9 tabling ever be less easy than 4 tables rush?

Unless you want to never miss an oppertunity to quickfold (which could get you into too much stuff to do while making decisions) you're pretty much in control of the pace of your game.

Now when u go 5 tables rush or more i can see where it gets tricky.. But basically who can play more than 8 tables normal should never have a more difficult time playing 4 tables of rush...

Remember, its ok to take your time, even to fold, in rush. (and you would still get more hands in than 8 tabling)

the pace is way faster in 3 tables rush than 6tabling normal games just compare the amount of hands/hour for 3x rush and 6tabling...

1 ZooM table should be equivalent to 250 hands / hour.

yeah its way faster if you click quickfold non stop till u have a new decision, WHILE you're already in a decision.

Like i said in my previous post.
