Rush Poker
Full Tilt recently announced a poker format “that will update online poker forever”. Rush Poker, often referred to as just “Rush”, is an exciting form of the game which brings non-stop action and eliminates dull moments. The premise is simple; instead of waiting between hands players are immediately transported to a new table where they will find a different group of opponents. This process continues to repeat itself and allows players to get in an excess of 250 hands each hour. While Rush Poker tournaments do exist they are nowhere near as popular as Rush cash games. It all starts with the

Rush Poker can be found in the FullTiltPoker.com Lobby just under the Ring Game, Sit & Go, and Tournament tabs. FullTiltPoker currently offers
Rush Poker Holdem, Limit Hold’em, Pot-Limit Omaha Hi, and Pot-Limit Omaha Hi/Lo. Stakes start as low as $.02/$.05 and go up to $1/$2 blinds. Pot-Limit Omaha only runs from $.05/$.10 up to $.50/$1.00. After choosing your game and limits a new Lobby will pop up with information on the current game including hands per hour and average pot size. If these numbers are to your liking click “join now” and with in a few seconds your Rush Poker session will begin.
Once at the table you will be presented with different options to help speed up game-play. To speed up play, whether it is your turn or not you are allowed to fold and move onto another table. This can be done by selecting the “quick fold” button on the bottom of the screen. You will not know whether or not players have quick-folded until the action is upon them. This is what makes Rush Poker so interesting; the ability to fold marginal hands and be immediately dealt another significantly alters the way people play the game.
This is what sets Rush Poker apart, the ability to play so many hands per hour. With an average for 250-300 hands per hour in NL games, you no longer have to four table to stay entertained. Even better, if you are skilled enough to handle more tables, you can multi-table Rush Poker! The one downfall here is there is only one table at each limit. For example, at $.50/$1.00 there are PLO, NL 6max, NL Full Ring, and Fixed Limit Full Ring tables but just once of each. If you enjoy 6max and want to play multiple Rush Poker tables at once you will need to play different limits. This can become a bit confusing but with practice can allow you to 2 table and get in more than 500 hands per hour!
The great thing about Rush Poker is it allows you to easily clear the FullTiltPoker 100% up to $600 initial deposit bonus. Because the bonus is large and released in $20 increments it is crucial to be able to play a lot of hands to clear as much of the bonus as possible in the allotted 120 days. Those who are able to multi-table Rush Poker should be able to clear the bonus in its entirety. This will certainly come in handy when attempting to move up in limits. These extra hands played will also help with the FullTiltPoker.com Iron Man Challenge which is another great way FullTilt rewards its loyal customers. The more rake you pay the higher your Iron Man Status will go which results in mid-year bonuses and other prizes.
Give Rush Poker a go the next time you’re bored of regular cash games. It’s action-packed and even those with attention issues should have no problem staying entertained as you get in five hands each minute!
