There was actually a $.50/$1 lobby running earlier when I looked. Not sure how you'd go about playing it though.

Are there any transition animations like on FTP? It seems like after the hand your old opponents disappear and new ones reappear. I liked the "whoosh" one on FTP and the fade one was good too.

Other day i was thinking that they will release it when micro stakes MTT series (micro millions) will begin and seems like it's just what will happen. I guess at first they will introduce only micro limits (up to NL50?) so all micro guys trying to bink one of those MTT's could play couple rush tables too.

Thanks for all your comments and replies regarding Zoom, our new fast-paced Ring Game product.

Based on player feedback we have added two new features on the .TEST version:
1) Sit out next BB – Fully operational with the checkbox on the table.
2) “Fold & Watch” – There is still some graphic work to be done on this feature, but for now you can test it by pressing Ctrl+Shift while you click the Fold button. This feature does not work with the ‘Fast Fold’ button.

You are welcome to test the new features on TestPokerStars (or just test Zoom in general, if you haven’t had the chance yet). Please send any feedback you would like to share to beta@pokerstars.com. If you have never visited TestPokerStars, here are the instructions on how to do this:
http://www.testpokerstars.com/instructions.html

We are finalizing the last few details regarding the product and expect Zoom to be released as Real Money beta in mid-March.

Can you give details, which limits are PROBABLY going to be offered?

I meant on the .COM client, not TestPokerStars.

This is simply for internal testing and players on TestPokerStars cannot play in that group.

This is still being finalized, so I cannot share more information on this topic right now.

Initially we will have ZOOM for Ring Games only. We are looking at Zoom tournaments, but it is too early to comment on when they might be done (if at all).
