Feel the Rush, Play Rush Poker

January 24, 2010

Rush Poker is the world’s fastest poker game – and it’s only available at Full Tilt Poker.

This page shows you how to find and play a Rush Poker game.

Unlike a standard ring game, when you play Rush Poker you’ll join a large player pool and face a different table of opponents every hand you play. When you fold your hand, you’ll immediately be moved to a new table for your next hand.

Here is a short extract from the Full Tilt site explaining what Rush Poker is all about.

What is Rush Poker*?

Rush Poker is a new poker format available only at Full Tilt Poker. When you play Rush Poker , you’ll join a large player pool and face a different table of players every hand you play. As soon as you fold your hand, you’ll be moved to another table for your next hand.

What does the Quick Fold button do?

The Quick Fold button – located at the bottom of the Rush Poker* tables – moves you to another table for your next hand right away, even if the action hasn’t reached you yet. Players at your previous table will not see that you have folded until it’s your turn to act.

You can use the Quick Fold button at any point in a hand, unless you have committed chips to the pot and are not facing a bet (including when you are the big blind), or you are all in. Beware – once you click the Quick Fold button, there is no taking that action back.

How do posting blinds and seating position work in a Rush Poker* game?

You’ll post the big blind upon joining a Rush Poker game. After that, the big blind is assigned to the player who has gone the most hands without posting it. If there is a tie for who has gone the longest without posting, the big blind will be chosen randomly among the tied players. All other seating positions, including the small blind, are completely random from hand to hand.

Do I have the same amount of time to act in a Rush Poker game as I do in a standard ring game?

Your amount of time to act and your time bank in a Rush Poker game are the same as in a standard ring game, with the following exceptions:

  • During pre-flop play, if it is your turn to act and no players have raised in front of you, you will have a shortened decision time and will not have the option to activate your time bank; if there is a raise in front of you, you will have the standard decision time and the option to activate your time bank.
  • Your time bank will be fully replenished at the start of each hand.

This is very innovative and exciting for online poker. Looking forward to everyone’s feedback.

    I like the way you write, few parts I had to read twice :D but still good stuff.

Got something to say?





Choosing the right Avatar to represent you in the poker room can be a very tricky but extremely vital part of success in online poker. The avatar(picture) is a portrayal of what kind of image you would like to represent and of course it goes along with what your alias is. I play with a few avatars from that go along with all of my aliases on the various sites. But does your avatar affect the way players perceive you at the table? I think it does make a difference. For instance, look at how players react to 'players' that put themselves across as female players-very tricky and most come short as they underestimate the female players abilities. A the end of the day, avatars provide extra fun to the world of online poker. Full Tilt provides the best set of avatars as they change according to how you feel- happy, serious or angry. Here is my avatar that i use on Full Tilt- Silent, Swift and Deadly ;-):
