Party Poker working on Rush Poker Version
2012-04-05 18:03 by Olsdog
There's literally a rush on the Rush Poker concept since Party Poker has become the latest site to announce that they're going to launch a version of the speedy software.
bwin.party CEO Jim Ryan made the announcement about this after saying, "I can tell you that Rush Poker is in development now. Coming soon."

While Ryan labeled the software "Rush Poker," it actually doesn't have a name at this point, so we'll have to wait and see what Party Poker ultimately decides on.
Party is just the latest site to roll out a Rush Poker variant since PokerStars did so earlier in the year with Zoom Poker. Much like Rush, Zoom Poker sees players moved to another table as soon as their action within a hand is completed. The idea here is to help players get in more hands in less amount of time.
As for Rush Poker, this revolutionary concept was first implemented by Full Tilt Poker. But because the world's second largest poker site has gone dormant since last June, other poker rooms have moved to launch their own variation.
