IS Rush poker the new way forward.... Do you like it or hate it? Will PPL get bored and go back to normall poker? At the moment on N10 there are just under 1K playing at normal ring games, lots of them will be multitabling. At NL10 for rush there is 2200 playing. Will outher sites match FT fast paced games. Me myself, I like it, but ill still be playing normall I love milking a fish and its a bit harder at rush, they have to jump in to the net there. What do you guys think?

Internet makes you feel bored quicker, so you have to play in several tables or play it rush. When you play it outside net, you do it normaly because you are more envolved in the game when at the casino, or entertained when with your buddies. It all depends on where and when and how you play it. Nobody will try rush high stakes...

I tried it out and BAMM 50$ (my whole BR) gone. But I wasn't playing on Full Tilt anymore anyway so I don't need that BR. But RushPoker defenitely is nothing for me. It makes me to start donking around and takes aways the patience in poker. It is more like casino slot machine stuff that actual poker I think.
Its good fun every now & again when i need a change up from the regular speed games but i defintley won't be playing it solely. I think it takes too many important +EV elements out of the game such as reads & having position on known fish etc & instead you have to play ABC fit or fold poker, which in itself can get boring & theres just too many profitable spots that you miss out on cuz of not knowing the type of player ur in the pot against which i dont really like.
It'll be here to stay, but I won't play it.From what I can tell, rush poker tales away too many elements of poker to use standard strategy, but it's probably got it's own. LAG types are the ones who would be most profitable.

I would like to try it, but got no bankroll at FT. It sounds interesting, hopefully some other sides copy the idea and introduce a similar game. So I vote blue

I'm curious and would like to try this, since I've been reading about it in a few places, but I aint got no money at FTP. And I just made a withdrawal from my NETeller, so I aint got no money there either. But I got a few tenners at like at least 15 different sites.

I like Rush poker. I've been playing the last 2 days and I think It is a great idea. Congrats to FullTilt. You can clear a first deposit bonus pretty fast. You can play the same amounts of hands in 1 hour multitabling 8 or 12 tables or you can do it just in 1 or 2 tables. playinmg rush poker. It's awesome.

don't like it you can't observe how your opponents play, yes it is faster, but there are no good reading skills involved as you don't know your opponents.

They should make tables with seven deuce rule instead (if a player wins a pot holding 7-2,any suit, everybody else at the table has to pay that guy one BB) ... will surely play rush poker with small stakes when bored, but as previous posters have said rush poker will never of course be played in highstakes
