Rush Poker at Full Tilt Poker Blog » rushpoker

Just last week Full Tilt Poker added a new game to their site called Rush Poker and it is quickly becoming very popular. Rush Poker is basically a sped-up version of normal poker that uses a pool of tables to constantly switch players around so that they are always in the action. Unlike a normal Texas Holdem cash game where you have to constantly wait on other players, with Rush Poker if you don’t like the hand you are dealt you can fold and are immediately moved to another table where the action is again back on you. This allows you to play way more hands per hour and be a lot more selective with your starting hands. Also, you are constantly rotating your position on the table so it is just like playing a full rotation, though with Rush Poker you might not change position in a normal order all the time.

Benefits of Rush Poker

- Allows you to play many more hands per hour than a normal poker cash game
- Chance to make a ton more money from rakeback
- Like multi-tabling without the confusing jumping between windows
- Easier to bluff since it is much harder for opponents to study your play

Disadvantages of Rush Poker

- Less poker skill required to play so if you are a good winning player you probably won’t win as much at these tables
- Very hard to study the play of your opponents
- Post flop play can be a little trickier since most players will only play premium hands or pocket pairs
- You can’t track your players like in a normal ring game.

My 2 cents…

Rush Poker is the most influential software to hit the online poker world since online poker launched. Rush Poker is not a gimmick, it’s a platform, it’s like the introduction of cash games! I strongly believe we will look back years from now and remember the day rush poker was introduced to the online poker world. Full Tilt has this software patented so don’t except to see it any any other poker rooms.

My advice is this, try it out, and see what you think and don’t just judge what you think of it based on if you won or lost during the session. Many people will be quick to judge this without giving it an honest try, so until you try it you don’t know.
