Just played Zoom on Stars for the first time!

Statrted on NL2 and did a stack before I knew what was going on! -$11!!!!!
AK AA did not hold up once!

Moved to 6 seat NL5 and cashed out +$14.

Looked at the time and 3 hours had zoomed by!

Better look at some strategy for this game as I felt like a newbie!

Full ring or 6max?

Did my nuts on Fullring!

kept getting into 3 and 4ways here and Fish luv to draw flushes or strts!

Moved to 6max and found it a lot easier to catch fish. They were still drawing but always HU so less cards for me to miss.

Zoom is fun eh?

I apply a whole different strategy compare to my usual SH game, I tend to be far more Laggy.

Everytime I 3Bet with my KK/AA I get no action, so I've started to Call, Dangerous I know, but I'll see how it works out. Got to test everything and see what works best ;)

Any updates on how you're doing on Zoom?

Zoom is exactly the same game, it's your head that says it's strange. The only thing that changes is player's range, which is tighter, even a "normal" 60/4 fish can turn into 30/4 fish on zoom due to the "fast-fold effect". Therefore, tighter ranges lead to more ofter "cooler" scenarios but, as I said, it's the same game....

I've only played it once and kept getting called by trash against my normal range.

When I moved to 6max it did become more like usual game but still had allins vs Ax.

Think fish are more willing to gamble here as they don't get the table chat after mad donks.

Rush has improved my game greatly. Even though I have been basically been breaking even on 5nl fr my reads have become a lot better.

The big downside of zoom is that, because of u play so many hands/hour. You will encouter downswings "more" then on the regualare tables. So keep your head clean.

Happy farming _cool:
