I have come to the realization that a big reason for the run bad I have just been through has a lot to do with me playing this poker variant. It really takes alot of the skill edge out of the game and puts more emphasis on luck ie the fish like it a lot. I think that when I am able to deposit again since I recently lost my BR due to a mixture of run bad and poor play that I will be steering clear of playing the fast fold and return to the reg 6max cash cames.

zoom poker is no - no strategy, it's different strategy.
maybe you just play to tight in zoom + you just have to take advantege of multitabling

I have played zoom at pokerstars. I don't know if it's just me, but I happen to run KK into AA, QQ into KK or AA so often. It sucks. Maybe I am just really unlucky, but zoom has not treated me well.

Quick fold tables are great for volume but carry the difficulty of no table reads.

People are tight in zoom and they wait for pairs + you play many more hands in one hour, so I think that it is the reason - many people want to play only with top hands and there must be conflict quite often.

Zoom is bingo. Players raise from every button, and then rely on suckouts consistently. I never play for a large percentage of my bankroll on zoom. I will usually only play zoom on pokerstars to earn the giveaway ticket. I am always frustrated that the worst players always seem to have 5 to 10 buy-ins because they suckout so often. If I play a bit looser, I always run into stubborn blinds who won't fold any hand and still suckout with garbage. bluffing is usually a losing strategy in Zoom. No one folds bottom pair with no kicker.
