Hm zoom is gonna be rly interesting for sure. The better regs will make more money while the worse regs are gonna bleed out.

Don't think there are enough players to have it run above 1/2.

On FTP even 1/2 almost never ran. No idea why tho, there are definetely at least 30 regs of 2/4, and 30x4=120.

rake def needs to go down at hu, was playing someone at plo50 the other day for like under 100 hands and i broke even and opponent lost like $30,just ridiculous.

i think zoom's going to be huge at 1/2 and 2/4 nlh especially for rakeback grinders, theres easily enough regs at 1/2 plo for it to run imo, pokerstars player base is massive and i think a lot of players that were turned off cash games in the past for whatever reason will come back for zoom.

Fwiw Stars will roll out a mobile app and obviously this format is nuts for a 6" screen and might add a lot of recreational players to the poker eco system.

FTP didn't have the same level of PLO action as Stars, I can see there being up to $2/$4 Zoom pretty easily.

Fwiw Stars already has a mobile app that's available for people from the UK. It's supposed to be v. good and already easy to play 4-5 regular tables on an iPad. They have plans to unroll the app to other parts of the world as regulations and stuff allow.

I posted about it a while ago. It's called exoPC slate.

http://www.exopc.com/exomart/slate/

What I like about it :

- 2 USB slot : Good to put a keyboard/Mouse/USB drive
- HDMI port
- Can play full HD movie.
- Since it runs on a windows 7, you can/have w/e you have on your computer basically.

I just bought a brand new Acer and it cannot play 720p videos. It sucks big time imo. Beside behind able to put android games on it, I don't find any plus value over my exopc.

What I don't like about the exopc :

- Since it runs on a windows 7 for tablet, the touch screen is not as smooth as an IPAD or Android tablet
- The market place is rather empty compared to an IPAD...

They've also mentioned that they're looking to find ways to integrate social networking sites / social media with the stars client to bring in new players + make it more fun for recreational players.

anybody had luck getting money back from stars when a server freeze was clearly their fault and you DC out of all your cash games?

They're usually pretty good about handing out refunds in those situations. It depends on the exact scenario though but it can't hurt to email them.

prolly for the same reason he once raised a hand like 666x or 6666 just so he could win the pot and show the hand down (think the flop was the incredible 457r or equivalent and he won). aka, he's a legend

Just tested zoom. And i noticed you can sign out and sit in with fresh stacks again. Hope that they keep it 50bb min buyin if they are going to increase the stakes, otherwise it would be a 30bb players dream.

Used to be this way, it's history now.

Btw, 50bb min buyin for PLO Zoom?! Is it a sign that we might be getting it for normal tables too?
