    I think the time clock in Rush Poker needs to be much longer than the extra 10 seconds they give you. The speed in Rush is in eliminating the wasted time after you fold, it shouldn't also apply to the hands you are actually playing.

    There's just no reason not to have a normal 60 second time bank. Especially since by using your time clock you aren't negatively impacting anybody else at the table like in normal ring games because everyone who folded is already gone! So a longer clock doesn't slow down the game at all really.

    This is especially true if you are multi-tabling Rush. Get involved in tough hands simultaneously on more than one table and the clock is just way too short.

    Just because I can doesn't mean I should HAVE to. Sometimes you can be sitting with 500+BBs and the decisions are more intricate. Sometimes life happens around the computer too. Since the players who have folded have left the table, there's no downside to allowing more time either.

    But thanks for your positive input.

    I'm still playing 260+ hands/hr. I'm talking about the time bank for the 1 or 2 hands out of 100 when it's necessary. Case open, actually.

    Eh, I'm not gonna lie, I don't really like Rush after playing a bunch of hands, but the situations I've come across do seem to be very complex at times.

    I'm down for a bigger time bank.

    I agree but think 20-30 seconds would be sufficient

    Ugh, I already hate when I'm in the big blind and I can't fold and someone uses their entire time bank. Yuck.

    I always wondered what runs thru people brains when they tank for extended time against a randon donk. I swear they must be thinking about boning there misses or dinner.

    No way FTP does this, think they would have alot of complaints from the regulars if they did.. They should even consider removing the 10 second time bank..
