Hi ionellu.
Zoom tournaments on demand 4+0.4$ / 10+1$ / 24+2$... Sounds good. If Pokerstars don´t use the Zoom format for SnG and MTT, as FTP did with the Rush, is making a mistake.

I like this fast game and its the same like rush poker. And it seems, that FT never come back and so this is the best alternative. And other rooms like unibet etc. create the same fast kind of poker.

looking from the point of players- the more offerings you will get, the better, since you can go fot this and that, and then back to this again and looking from business point- whatever is good for players is good for business- so i think everyone wins in the end, thumbs up

excellent point i was always a big fan of both the cash and MTT's with rush poker on FTP and zoom seems to be a well made version of this personal favorite.

Hi guys!
Can someone post opinion about comparing (what horrible english i have...) Zoom Poker and Rush poker? How client runs, how many players have Zoom Poker (aprox), if HM works, etc... I like to read your opinions because i can´t play Zoom at this time (clear bonus in CameOn spend all my poker time).

I believe they don’t want to do everything at the same time so, as you say, maybe they will do it after Micromillions. I guess we can expect something like this if they don’t have another great idea to give us!

As someone who is provincial about most things i can safely say this is a game changer. Books will need to be written, read, digested and deconstructed. In a few years time you may go to a Casino and find a group of young bucks throwing mint candies at dinosaurs sitting around a table being hand dealt. These kids will wonder aloud how people even play Poker ne more. As they watch one of them plays Zoom poker on his Tablet and after only ten minutes is ahead by 20 hands. Another 10 mins and the gap grows even more. Finally he plays his first hand and scoffs as his AA is outflopped by KK. He packs the tablet away and starts away from table. His friends follow and continue laughing and making jokes about the dumb poker players wasting all their time when they can be all hopped up on Zoom.
I actually really like the game but boy i can see this ending marriages. I set the soft limit on ~3days is the first guiness record for zoom. Not seeing the hand finish is a minor nuisance but in a world about instant gratification this will be King.

I played a couple of times in Full tilt rush games and indeed i had a small problem with how the hand was ending every time. At first i was trying to go back and see the history but after a while it was such a fuss if you had a couple of tables open, and you could either see the history or play the game.

Is "Zoom" a different style of play from "Rush" ? I thought Rush poker was patented by Full Tilt so they were the only ones that had it. Did they just patent the name Rush? I guess that would make sense as Terminal Poker is the same style.
and looking from business point- whatever is good for players is good for business- so i think everyone wins in the end, thumbs up
