lol..yep..just got hammered 3 buy-ins as well (actually 4 as I was up one)..Three kings flopped, to a flopped straight...flopped straight to a flopped flush..and then the standard AA vs trash running the river straight..And a busted flush draw beating me with King high vs my OESD on an ace high board as I bet 2/3 flop and turn including a 2/3 pot river bet to take him off it...but to no avail..lol
These guys aren't playing tight..I have been watching some showdowns..a lot of trash being played...time to tighten up a bit

The PLO games are insanely soft, but they only have micro stakes so far -- fun to try though. I hope they don't ever go above plo100 as it may kill the player pools.

Anyone have a chart of the rake structure on rush? I've seen some PLO25 posted on 2p2 with rake of $8+.

I saw that the NL10 rake was about 3.60/1000
-edit...I think my 1400 hands at nl50 was about 9.50 in rake..small sample..but still..

Funny, now that I tightened up my resteals from sb, I losing there (almost even.) and now making money in the bb.
What is standard Agg? and Agg% usually?

I have been playing over the weekend, and to try it out I have been playing it like a double-or-nothing sit-n-go. I start with $10 in the .10/.20 game, and play until I have either doubled up or lost it all. Then I take a break, do something else, and then come back and try it again.
This allows me to keep my focus on the speed of the game, but not get caught up in one big hand to lose multiple buy ins. It also makes you adjust to some small stack poker too - my last one was a real roller coaster where I was down to $2 twice, but ended up coming back.
On Sunday I played for about 4 hours total, and went 6-1, gaining about $65 (The ones where I doubled up sometimes went more than $20, thus the extra gains). Nothing big, but it does help to pad the bankroll a bit.

This is a huge loss of profit if you are a good cash game player.

FTP points rack up quick when playing this......iron man will be extremely easy....2 tabling one .10 / .25 and one .25 / .50.....118 pts in about a half hour

Fish are already being swallowed up. Less players per board and less money being made. I was only able to take down one buy-in while other days i've been able to take 2 or 3 in short order.
Must say thought that regular speed games are extremely slow now. Think I might be able to move up to 5 or 6 from 4 multi-tabling.

my advice for rush poker fans, don't rush. I think players get too anxious to fold their cards just to see the next hand and don't put as much thought into each decision. I tried it for the first time last night and the first five minutes was hairy. Seems to be a lot of blind stealing and 3xBB bets taking down the pot. Will definitely stick with rush for now vs traditional NLH since I mainly play $50NL online.

i`m really enjoying rush, and i agree with you pokerjah. a lot of people insta-fold way too soon without even thinking about it. if i`m in position i`ll usually wait it out to see the action before me. i`m stealing and re-stealing a lot with marginal hands simply because everyone insta-folds without thought.
i`m actually proud of my session yesterday. played for about 4 hours (my longest session on rush yet). started out horribly by getting drawn out on three times and eventually was down about three and a half buy-ins (three huge coolers - AA vs AK, AQ vs A8, and KK vs JJ). however, i didn`t tilt and kept playing. eventually grinded back most of it (and if you include my bonus i was clearing, i ended up only down one buy-in which i thought was pretty good). when i lose that much i`ll usually walk away, but i kept myself together and played well after that. hopefully i can keep it up. rush poker has been very nice to me  | |

Usually trying to push players off the hand on the river but they keep calling me anyways. First time using FTP so I will have to figure out how to go back and analyse my key hands. Have to see how many hands I am actually playing per hour. I think I played about 300 last night (or 200/hr).
Nice to see I am close to clearing the first part of my bonus already. And I now have a positive rakeback balance (not sure why it was negative to begin with).
