autoreload works fine for me. only buygs i had so fat are the hole cards in replayer of hero not being shown, the replayed acting liek a table when you close it and asking if your sure, and 4 hours into a session I had 2 of my tables start showing the PS red spade team pro logo on a random person every hand.

im averaging about 1850-2k hands per hour playing 4 tables atm of 9max NLH, and im 27K hands in so far.

Is anyone still still experiencing lag with zoom? I played 18 tables of ring with no lag whatsoever, then I play four tables of zoom and I had to stop. It was choppy and unplayable.

I also logged in on my mac and though it was better than windows, it still lagged.

anyone?

excuse my ignorance but can someone please explain to me what the significance of the cap or no-cap debate is? What does it affect?

TIA

cap would split the pools again and that would limit the hopefully soon to be released highest stakes to a lower limit (two medium NL400 pools instead of a big NL400 pool and a medium NL600 pool, how sick would that be!)
no cap!

By looking the pools would be a bad idea to add CAP games for nl100 because it will split the players and will ruin performance. But I think it's not going to be a big problem for performance if they add CAP games for pools of 1000+ players. With 500 players a pool should work perfect.

it's not different. but it's also not a good thing.

for one thing it creates a rake-trap, in that almost no-one at 100NL cap wins money (granted they're prob all terrible anyway judging by the 40bb-ers that play at the normal tables) b/c of the rake. AFAIK 200NL is in a similar boat albeit there are a few more ~1bb winners b/c the rake in bb/100 is lower than at 100NL

secondly, it gives fish' money to regs a lot of whom would prob be busto at non-cap tables (you 400+ guys can calm down, i'm obv talking about the lower stakes). This is sort of unfair to the people(regs) who can actually play more than one street of poker profitably

Fixed limit Zoom has has already been added! At the moment only 2 players

but that's bound to pick up - FT's Rush poker had a very decent FL player pool.

Wtf. What are your stats? I played 19/15 in Rush 9max and only got 275 hands/hr/table. Is Zoom that much faster somehow or are you guys nitting it up?

I don't think they should add CAP, at least not at first, because it would dilute the player pool too much. At least at the higher stakes. Zoom/Rush can't run smoothly without enough players involved -- the goal should be to create a sustainable pool of players such that you can always get a game going that moves quickly. At 25nl this won't be a problem, but at 200 or 400 and higher, it would definitely be an issue. Two slow moving, mediocre pools are far worse than one pool that works well.

LOL
I don't play cap games myself but this is hilarious.

"Mommmmmmmy, the store across the street is giving out free icecream and there are some kids going there and getting it."
-"Yeah sweetheart, isn't that wonderful?"
"NOOO, IT IS NOT FAIR!!!!!!! I AM USED TO WALKING TO THE MALL FOR ICECREAM, OTHERS SHOULD NOT GET ICECREAM FROM ACROSS THE STREET"

-"But darling, why are you so upset?"
"They have additional flavours compared to the icecream from the mall"

-"Isn't that just splendid sweetheart? So every kid can choose his favourite flavour"
"I LIKE STRAWBERRIES"

How about adding an anouncment in micro LHE lobby about addition of LHE to Zoom?

Most of the guys with whome i talked at tables did not even know the LHE pool has been added to Zoom.

They thought zoom was only for NL.

I never played Rush, but Zoom appears to be faster. With 15% VPIP full ring, 400 hands per hour is standard. It's a nit-fest at the lowest limits, for sure, with most hands not going to a flop, let alone all the way to showdown.

Importing doesn't work for me in HEM 2, no HUD or importing hands with Zoom. Don't upgrade to HEM2 by the way, it's the biggest waste of money ever. Probably the worst software I've ever used.
