Ye, you run hot... I dropped the same amount in 4k hands by getting sucked out a ton.

Please, Pokerstars, do not allow CAP games on zoom.

Remember that on Mac notebooks, which have only a single mouse button, the Control-Mouseclick action is mapped to a mouse right-click. So presumably that's why the Mac client isn't recognizing it as a Control-leftclick for the fold and watch function.

I don't know offhand if this can be remapped to another combination. If you have a USB mouse you can plug into your Mac notebook, I believe that should work to properly send a control-leftclick.

If you have a Mac you're clearly a fish anyways.

sorry to be the one to tell you this, but if you're dropping $150 in 4k hands at 5nl there are some serious leaks in your game.

Why would you, as a serious player ever have animations on? You want the information made available to you instantly so you turn all animations off.

(Maybe you're fish)
Meh, I 20 tabled sng's and mtt's for 6 years and Couldn't be bothered changing a single setting except seat position but I'm lazy that way.

I wonder how Zoom will play out when the next Milestone promo is coming. People 24 tabling Zoom on 8 different formats having an AHK script to fold each hand?

well that's pretty stupid - zoom players pay same rake and it's a ring game.

They wouldn't do that.

Answering my own question, it appears that there are around 1600 Zoom 10NL FR players, and 1100 regular 10NL FR players (not including the CAP tables).

Good start.

hu-players also pay rake but are now excluded. formats that invite behaviour not within the spritit of the promotion probably will and should be excluded.

The zoom table limit is 4 per pool, and 6 total.

but im 99% sure stars wont let this happen in the future, enjoy it while you still can, pussy ratholers. If you leave tables and buyin again within lets say an hour you should have the same $ amount like when you left.

What are the plans when to add 25NL+ ?

they can leave with 200bbs+ and return with 50bbs. Pretty sure that's already been decided/explained.

As for cap zoom games (i don't play cap btw) I'd be interested in hearing how cap players think it would affect them? i mean the edges in cap games are thin anyway, if the fish that like cap decided to play zoom and all the regs followed then i could imagine the games becoming even less beatable than they are at normal tables where players can at least seat select somewhat.
