There were several small issues reported after the initial testing on .COM so we will try to fix those before we deploy further clients with ZOOM. Will update as soon as there is more information.

Is the 6 tables Zoom cap something permanent or done purposely for the launch

On Rush the hands weren't tracked by 3rd party websites like PKR table ratings. Anybody know if this will be the case with Zoom poker?

when will you release PLO200 and NL400?
is it days, weeks or months?
are you waiting until everything works smooth over the next few days and then insta release all bigger limits at one time? or will there be higher limit each weak? (please don't! xD)
looking forward to it and would like to plan a little ahead. Don't want any date, just some possible estimation.

it's not possible to mine hands in zoom. you'd have to mine hands because there are no actuall tables.

It is on purpose for the launch. We will see if we remove the cap completely or have a higher cap once ZOOM has been running for some more time.

If all goes well without any issues, when would you expect all limits to be deployed?

This is hard to say at this stage. We want to be careful and weekends are always times that stress the system the most. Last thing we want is to release too quickly and end up with serious issues on Sunday. Once there is more info, we will update here.

Zoom needs some sort of cap. At a certain point adding more tables stops increasing a persons hands per hour, beyond that limit people will just be slowing the games down. Plus without a cap the reg:fish ratio will just be ridiculously bad. 4 per limit worked perfect with rush, I think more than 6 per limit would be a mistake.

Agreed, 4 per limit is perfect. And if you want more table you can play another stake or SH/FR.

I don't think they will change the cap per pool but only the cap for total tables which is now 6
