First Experiences with Rush-Tables

[tmiby]

Hi all,
I've read the other postings about Rush-Tables here:
http://www.pokertrikz.com/forums/rak...sh-tables.html

My playing experiences:
I've only played a very short 15 minute session 25NL, 6max Rush tables.

-Aggression: more 3betting pre
-Stealing: didn't seem as easy as on normal 6max (3bets from blinds)
-flop play: holy carp! what I've seen was just crazy. getting it in with TP seems to be a no-brainer! even with j /q as kicker! It seems very straight forward and aggressiv to me (I like it)!

After all, I really think that some less frequent player come in for about 1 hour a week and just wanna play and have action - so they probably choose the rush tables. I'm pretty sure that there will be a lot of fish! I think we really can get a 'new' edge here. The game flow itself, seems very quick and people may start to play aggressiv an clueless.


Holy cow! I didn't even play 100 hands, but I kept getting good hands and flops. So I won close to 4 Buyins! which is the best winrate for a session I've ever had!!!


Pretty lucky, I know.

Try it out and post your experiences.

Played about 10minutes on NL10, lost 3buyins
Flush-overflush, AKvsKK, and one buyin in smaller pieces when I almost never hit the flop and when hit someone had a bigger hand...

At this limit, I haven't noticed light 3betting, seems they do it with super-premiums 95% of the time. Other than that, cannot be sure of anything

k.
I GUESS that this type of game could be really swingy...because it seems very aggro...

However, I'm gonna give it another try today's evening.

Pockertracker: someone tried pockertracker to import any hands?
I probably first try to get those hands into a different DB. Pretty sure HUD will be to slow

HUD won't work on these yet because you need to have a hand dealt before stats pop up and you are whisked away before that can happen.

maybe it's best to have 2 screens (or at least split 1 screen) where you have an open Rush table on one screen and PT3 on the other. if you get in big pots, just look up the guy in PT3...

That's actually quite a good idea.

I'm telling you guys...I'm just laughing my a** of and I'm having the best session ever!
played for 100 minuts now...first 25NL rush. now 50NL rush.
I'm thinking about going to 100NL as long as it is such a new thing and everyone seems to spew around his money!

35BB/100....I'm sitting with 400BB at the table. jauuuuu!

I played some 10nl last night for a little bit and the play is truly horrible from what I saw. I finished up about 2.5 bi in about 15 minutes. It's amazing how many hands you can get in with the quick fold button!

Any advice on how to play against blind stealers from button raisers and even sb raising bb pre? Seems almost everyhand they raise pf. Also seems that my steals are most of the time being rr from the sb or bb.
Also, what hand ranges are you having luck with? To early raiser should AQo and AJ be folded? How play KQ? Set mine all pocket pairs to a raise or should be like tens or higher to a raise and I should reraise with my tens or higher pre?
What minimum I should have before stacking of preflop? Postflop? Anyone willing to share would be great. So far am just up a little on rush tables after some bad calls and coolers.

this is some things I do:

- make your steal raises 2x until 3x. If they fold, that's fine - if they 3bet you just lost less money.
- raise your strong hands 3x - 4x. with tending to 4x. they have no reads about your standart raise size.
-cbet small with air and pot it with strong hands. once again for the same reason.
- Probably minraise from SB. Many BB don't play back very well.
- I tend to fold AJ against UTG or UTG+1. Probably even AQs.
- setmining seems the same or it's even better, just make sure villains stack is okay. I feel that it is easier to get it in in rush games than normal 6max. they most often don't fold TP.
- I call a raise with PP but 3bet rarely.
- All non pair hands I try to play raise/3bet/4bet/shove or FOLD.
- Stacking pre is for me QQ+/AK and AKs
