Let’s hope you’re running the latest Mac OS with some decent horsepower under the hood. This week Full Tilt Poker has released a new version of Texas Hold’em that’s literally put the online poker world on notice. It’s called Rush Poker and it’s the perfect answer for the ADHD crowd that can’t stand waiting for more than a few seconds to play their next hand of poker. The premise is simple but the technology behind it is actually very complex. If you’re wondering why you need the extra horsepower (processor power) to enjoy this it’s because it’sFAST. Very fast.
So what is Rush Poker? Glad you asked…
When you sign up for a Rush Poker game at Full Tilt you join a pool of players that are all playing the same game and stakes. You’re instantly “transported” to a full ring game and are dealt a hand. If you choose to act on the hand and play, the hand plays out with the standard Flop, Turn, and River (unless of course there’s a raise and the other opponents fold). If you choose to fold however, is where things get interesting. When you fold your hand you’re instantly transported to another Rush Poker table.
In other words, the very second you’re no longer involved in the hand you land at another table and are instantly dealt a new hand. Pretty trick, right? We certainly think so. If you’re looking for speed you’ve found it. This is the perfect solution to someone who doesn’t want to multi-table. You simply take your seat and the tables come to you.
This new game is going to make an impact on other sites that don’t offer it. It’s one of the first truly revolutionary poker games introduced since the online poker market took off like a rocket in 2002. There will be talk of strategy, bots, and all sorts of other angles that one may exploit based on this new poker game. We’ll definitely be talking much more about this new game in the coming weeks.
So if you needed yet another reason to try their exclusive Mac compatible Full Tilt Poker client, here it is.
Good Luck at the Tables!
