For people like me who dont like waiting around to play one or two hands an hour, this sounds perfect!
No waiting between hands, no waiting whilst others play, just non stop action!
Head over to our Poker Guides to learn more, including a video which explains it.
Or sign up at Full Tilt Poker to try it out
Would appreciate your thoughts, Thanks! |

I've not tried it yet but it seems like a great idea. Miles more hands and opportunities, but it means you won't be able to get a read on other players and bluffing a win will be a lot harder since whoever is playing is probably doing so with a strong hand.
The idea gets a big thumbs up from me but I want to see how it plays. |

Thanks Andy. Yeah initial thoughts are it will mean very tight play. Does this mean that a more open style of play could work well though?
Catching trips or more against a big pair type strategy... I've lost touch a bit on poker (well actually I gave up when everyone started getting better and I didnt!) so interested to hear what the OLBG poker experts think! |

I was thinking the same thing about a more open style being effective Shark so maybe a few others will have the same plan  |

How does the positioning work? For example, you are going to be on the button in the next hand but you fold and are shifted to another table so would you now be placed at random? Or could you just keep folding before the Big Blind?
No harm lads but it's just 'arcade style' poker really and there will be little skill involved as you don't get time to get a read or develop a table persona. All you would be doing is foldng untill you get good hole cards and then going at it. I personally wouldn't touch it and I have a few mates who fully agree.
If your looking to 'gamble' and have sum fun then fair enough but it's not for me.

| its fast and furious and the positioning after folding does seem a little random and im not sure it suits my style of play but if you only play decent hands this is probably ideal, fold weak hands straight away and wait for the good uns. You can lose a lot of money quickly if your not wary though. |
