Zoom is good for people that have short attention spans. You could be one of them.

love zoom!!

Yeah I am kind of bored of it too, I dont feel like I can leave the game either. Time goes a lot quicker IMO.

More people quick fold till they get good hands so you see coolers a lot more. I dont like a game where I feel confused what to do with QQ/AK facing a 3bet.

*exactly* I started to get paranoid.

Ive got the two verneer threads bookmarked so Im going to read up before I try Zoom again. He just wins...what am I doing wrong?

Is anyone else's pt3 hud stuffing up after every few hands or so?

think someone's jelly.

I like it, only played an hour or so but seemed way more fishy than standard 2nl.

Is everyone else's HUD working fine though? HEM imported the hands fine but no HUD.

Early guesses on an acceptable/impressive winrates?

HEM don't have a Zoom hud yet. PT3/PT4 do.

Are tourneys coming out anyone know?

My HEM imported the hands but wont show me my results. Did I do something wrong or is my HEM screwed up?

My HEM imported my hands but I can't find my results on the page do I need to wait for an update and will I have to reimport all my hands?

HEM has their own forums. Go there.

Just figured someone here might know

tuesday will be an update released. Then hud should work at zoom

I'm def jelly that you can play zoom and I can't atm I'm also one of the people with short attention spans so Rush poker was a good fit for me.

I hope so, the multi entry rush tournaments on ftp were awesome

my new plan for zoom is dont play it, even at 2nl where all in pre means AA. Like verneer when he was doing his 10k challenge, I need to make some adjustments...Reading through his thread I think yeah, Ill try and see a showdown with my decent but not great hands and get it in with my great hands, but everyone is so aggressive, Im never seeing a showdown :/ I must be missing something obviously.

I think Zoom is awesome and so many spots in these games. OK I admit im running hot too, something like 30bb/100 over the last 20k hands, thin brag yes i know. Playing 10k hands in a day is also pretty cool i never was able to put in that kinda volume on other tables.
The best thing about it is no more damn table selection, dont you hate it scanning the lobby all the time and bumhunt for the fishes? I always hated table selection constantly and it felt kinda dirty. With table scanner software you cant even call it a "skill" anymore, which i wouldnt have called it anyways but thats another story.
Also funny how bad many of the even 50NL+ regs are vs other regs, could also be that they are just spewing around at 10NL Zoom of course, but i rather think the can only play vs fish.
Tracking sites also cant track the results which is another reason for playing Zoom.
Zoom format is the future of poker imo.

I would hold off until the HUD is working.

you can install the PT3 beta 60day trial, hud is working there

awesome this has been bugging me all day!

Are people really finding zoom poker that hard? I've found the players are way looser there then in your standard 6max game. I've seen a fair few players 4bet shove with hands like AQo, some players stacking off multiway with small PP's. I've only played 1000 hands there but i'm up $13. ATM ignoring thin value seems to work just fine.

chad,

what adjustments are you making currently when compared to your "normal" game?

I don't get why this should be hard if you normally are a winner at these stakes.

probably a bit tighter all round but thats all

There was no 'enable zoom hud' option in the PT3 trial when I downloaded it... you got a working link?
