Is it worth playing zoom because of rakeback?

Compensates play far, only to have a large volume and receive very rakeback?

I think it's past the ages where players play for rakeback. Zoom rakeback is the exact same as regular cash game rakeback.

But far the number of hands played is much higher than in regular cash.

What are you comparing # of hands played to? You can easily play more hands by multitabling

I only play short sesssions of Zoom poker when I play. I hate to admit it, but I'm really money scared when I play cash game and since players tend to fold more in zoom, that's perfect profit for me and I grind StarCoins much faster.

Multi-tabling is just not a profitable option for me. I tried more than once and lost every time.

I normally play 50 and one to clear the CARDEX bonus on pokerstars once that bonus cleared and I have more than 100 that I buy in for hit and run.
Got 2d and 5d with CARDEX multiple times anybody get anything decent with it?

Zoom KO tourneys are a big favourite of mine, lots of value, fast paced and you tend to find more aggressive, LAG players in there - get a stack and play solid and results in zoom will come..

I would concentrate on improving my game than thinking about rakeback.

The zoom is also a good option for rakeback, is a great option to lenvatar great values, but the same proportion of gains are those of losses.
The zoom is very good for the most experienced poker players.

improving your game as most important is great advice.

All you can really learn from Zoom is to play only good cards from the best positions. Player reading and table image is nonexistant. So my advice would be go easy on Zoom, dont play poker simply for money.

I hate zoom, I've been badbeteado so many times that the rakeback is just the compensation of the PokerStars algorithm that makes you lose to your liking.
