Today PokerStars released an Android version of Zoom Poker, a fast action ring game format that give players more hands in less time! For now this version of Zoom only works on Android-powered devices, but probably it won't take long until Zoom will be available for iPhone and iPad as well.

Pokerstars team works really well in developing solutions for their main public, they know what we look for. Having 300 million hands played in two months on this new format is a proof of that: fantastic! I have to say I still haven’t tried it, and I still haven’t read anyone around here commenting about that type of action, but I am really curious about it, think I will have to make a new deposit to go look at it with my own eyes and “taste” it! And now having the chance of doing it anywhere, instead of being stuck to pc, is the cherry in the top of the cake!

i must admit i like zoom poker- it's fast, action filled and wipes out your bankroll in an instance- zoom and your money is gone! probably pokerstars could have created a commercial for zoom poker on tv- with the main slogan saying: "Zoom poker- fastest way to lose your bankroll"...but i still enjoy it

Would be so nice to play poker on an android device.. If I get one, for sure I would play on Poker Stars.. The zoom feature is very cool, but I don't use it too much.. I like sit and go's and tournaments.. Good advance for Poker Stars!

Posted by noonlion: well that's pretty crazy.
i think most people who play it on their phone will lose money - it just seems far too casual and easy access.
on a side note - is pokerstars going to take over the globe?
All this billion dollar businesses which have the capability of calling almost everyone who has even if it is just one dollar to spend to go and spent it there are many times defined like “another work of those who rule the world”, and these groups of powerful people even have names, although it doesn’t mind now to refer it here. If we think better businesses like Pokerstars came from the most simple ideas of business when created. So anyone can reach this level. One just need to have a good and simple idea. Look at the facebook creator…

This isn't the first place I heard this news, and was immediately excited since I had just gotten a new android based phone when I heard it. With hands shaking, I quickly went to download it. Installed it and went to sign in, just to be told it was only available in Europe. Guess I'll hafta wait until it's available here, but super excited for when it does.
