does anyone else wish there was a "fold and stay button" for like when you make a big laydown in a multi way pot and want so see wat the other guys do/have.
its a pain to have to wait 7 hands and then go to the HH replayer and go back and replay it. you should have the option to see a hand through b4 getting to your next hand imo -
Yes, this would be great.. I also find also when I am playing cash rush I might hit the sit out next hand button just to see what the action was..

SF THIS!!! WTF FTP??? Making the MILL and BRAWL RUSH?? This is beyond retarded...!!

QFT!
When I heard about rush-week, I thought they were going to make new tournaments. Not fuck up our schedule. My favourite tournament of the day is the $163, and now I have to skip it. FML! -

This would definitely make Rush better...... Sucks to use your time bank tanking with 2 others in the hand, fold, and can't even see what plays out......

Starting tomorrow we're going to move both $150s back to being non-Rush. It was certainly never our intention to upset so many players, and while the numbers suggest most players enjoy this change of pace (nearly every Rushified guarantee has done better than the non-Rush version, especially the rebuys), the more serious higher stakes crowd in general does not. We'll also change the $300 version on Saturday and the $150 on Sunday. The Brawl and the Million already have players registered, and they're more popular with casual players, so we aren't going to change those.

well done doug, its good to see FTP is listening to their clientele. Thumbs up.

you can see it play out if you timeout without timebanking or folding. -

Well, for starters... I want to say sorry because I kind of flew off the handle a little bit itt earlier... was irritated because like a lot of other people posting in here, this is my job... and making a lot of the HS mtts rush tourneys really messes with my schedule...
I have always respected how you handle yourself and FTP on here... you are always on top of things and try to help us out when you can... I understand the reasoning behind not unrushing the brawl and mill... sucks but I will get over it... I don't mind it much really because like I said before... I think rush in fun and interesting... but I just can't 4-5 table rush mtts with my reg schedule.... but one or two here and there isn't bad at all.
Anyways, thank you for doing what you could do and helping us out... I never would of thought this thread would of changed anything but you pulled through.

TY FTPDOUGH..

What?!?! Rush was the only reason I was going to play those $163s. Non-rush poker is so early 2010.

Some of you guys keep saying its only for a week, it wont be if enough play them!

As for the tournaments not reaching guarantee.... pokerstars majors yesterday barely did so what is the problem?
If you like them, fair enough, but anyone playing them because there there and dont want them, are cutting their own thoats, because if FTP think its a success you'll be looking at them long term.
Without players Fulltilt cant make a cent. -
tbh when I first heard about rush week I was very annoyed, but after playing the 163s rush style yesterday it was alright.....mixing one of those in with 7-8 games on other sites isnt tough whatsoever.....also the fields seemed very soft and players were getting eliminated much faster then expected....is it safe to say ROIs are higher in rush tournaments? Not sure if they are, but they seemed to be

Maybe... but the big thing is... if FTP were trying to switch over to only rush or mostly rush mtts... then you're stuck 4-6 tabling all the time... which is obv terribad.

I don't mind a rush tourney here and there but I don't want to end up running like 3+ rush mtts with 10+ other mtts. -

there is. just click sit out next hand before you fold... you'll be kept at that table. -
I hate Rush poker... We might as well be playing deuces wild or follow the queen... which would be more fun btw...

Please get back to playing regular poker... It's hard enough to tell people that you spend most of your day playing in an online poker game, but this Rush stuff is more similar to playing craps... It's like crack for gamblers... Why would you try and speed up a game that is already lightning fast. -
I think the structure is just as good maybe even better than standard structures

Sit n Go are best for making money and building bankroll... rush is kind of stupid...

if you timeout intentionally, you'll be sitting out and they'll leave you at the table till the hand is over
