Fast Moving Ring Game Product - Zoom Poker

[mporter123]

Had a quick go on the Zoom tables on Stars last night. Very very impressive.

Runs smoothly, feels very addictive as you can play so many hands so quickly, actually makes playing cash feel fun! This may be the type of game that draws me back into cash occasionally. Also its perfect when you have 30mins to kill and want to play a whole bunch of hands.

Looking forward to seeing where they go with it - Zoom tournaments, different blind levels etc..

Hearing that 25% of cash at those levels instantly migrated to Zoom - will be interesting to see how it affects the overall cash games at Stars. Any thoughts on Zoom strategy compared to normal cash?

Shouldn"t play above your bankroll Phil.

I also played above my bankroll tonight and had $5 worth on Zoom....

My AA got busted by a flush!


I had another $5.....

My AA got busted by 73 hitting two pair on the flop!


I had another $5......

Spent about an hour running it up to $15.10

I cashed out with $0.10 profit  

I don"t usually play cash because I get bored with it. However, this was good fun  

Probably won"t play lots of it, and can"t really say it will be an easy way of making a profit but it makes a refreshing change.
