On February 26th, Stake Poker introduces ‘Next!', its brand-new Fast-Fold game mode for both cash games and tournaments.
What is Fast-Fold?
Fast-Fold poker allows players to:
- Instantly fold their hand (even when it's not their turn)
- Immediately jump into a brand-new hand
- Play at a new table with new opponents every time
- No waiting. No downtime. Just pure volume and constant action.
If you love maximizing hands per hour and keeping the adrenaline high, ‘Next!' is built for you.
‘Next!' Cash Games
‘Next!' Cash tables will launch with a wide range of stakes, making the format accessible for every bankroll:

‘Next!: Drops': $1,000,000 in Random Cash Drops
To supercharge the launch, Stake Poker is rolling out ‘Next!: Drops', a massive promotional campaign designed to reward players in ‘Next!' Cash games.
Here's how it works:
- At random intervals, after a certain number of hands
- A random hand is selected
- Cash between 3 Big Blinds and 100 Big Blinds is dropped directly into the pot
That's right, completely random, surprise boosts to the action.
$1,000,000 Promotion Pool
- Stake will spend $1,000,000 on ‘Next!: Drops'
- The promotion will run until the full amount is awarded
- The Bad Beat Jackpot will apply to ‘Next!' Cash tables
- The jackpot will be replenished up to $1,000,000
Every hand could trigger something big.
‘Next!' Tournaments: Fast Action Meets Big Rewards
The ‘Next!' experience isn't limited to cash games.
Stake Poker is launching six new daily ‘Next!' tournaments, offering buy-ins from:
- $0.01 (centroll format)
- Up to $20
There's something for every type of player.
Tournament Format
- Most events will be PKO (Progressive Knockout) tournaments
- The $0.01 buy-in event will be a traditional non-bounty tournament
- ‘Next!' tournaments will use the Fast-Fold format early on
- Once the field reaches a specific player threshold, the tournament transitions into traditional gameplay
- This hybrid format combines:
- Early-stage high-speed volume
- Late-stage strategic depth
It's the perfect mix of action and skill.
Why ‘Next!' Changes the Game
‘Next!' isn't just another poker mode. It's designed for:
- Multi-tablers who want maximum efficiency
- Recreational players who hate waiting for hands
- Tournament players looking for faster early levels
- Action seekers who thrive on constant engagement
Add in surprise cash drops, a $1M promotional budget, and a replenished Bad Beat Jackpot, and you have one of the most exciting poker launches of the year.
