Zone Poker at Bovada Poker Launched!

[Beanfacekilla]

Some horrible players in Zone. Not a surprise.

Some of the calls I get when I have monster hands make me wonder what these people are thinking.

It seems like in 6-max, no one ever believes I actually have a hand. They "defend" their blinds with the biggest garbage hands I could imagine.

Also, when it is B vs. B, people are always going crazy trying to steal my $0.05

I love zone. So many dipsticks, so many hands, so much money to be made.

How about 8pm ET? We might have to make it .05/.10 though - want to get in the busiest game.

8 PM eastern? And I would actually prefer doing $10NL

8 PM eastern?

Yep! Looks like we can play .02/.05 - tables are getting some action now.

 

[A9ofHearts]

Yep!

How could you reply that fast?!?! lol

 

[Debi]

How did you quote before my edit so fast? lol

It seems that the 10NL 6-max table maxes out at 85 people? Can anyone confirm/deny?

 

[sam1chips]

OK,

I just put in a small session at 10nl. This isn't bad, but there are a few things that bother me.

First, why only one table? I am a real degenerate. I used to play 3-4 tables of Rush back when I had that available to me. My one table session was about 205 hands/hour. I can four table regular 6-max and get 350-400 hands/hour pretty easily.

I just put in a small session at 10nl as well. I played one table of 9-handed 10nl zone, and 3 tables of 10nl 6-max regular cash game. A lot of hands, and definitely more hands than 4-tabling regular cash game tables

Only played play money on stars to check it out. Might have to give this a try. Thanks for posting. Did not know this could be in tourny form.

That's an option. I would still prefer to have 3-4 tables of zone going. I suspect that it will be allowed. When I tried to open a second table, I got a message indicating that I was about to reenter the game for a second time. It failed after that. Might be something they will allow when the number of players picks up.

Semi-confirmed. I also am unable to join. It's currently at 85 players.

Edit: Hopefully these are just growing pains.

I told your rep the next table they create better be called the Falcons lol.

Looks like the Hold em Games are AFC teams and Omaha is NFC.

Count me in for the 8PM session Keep us updated which table and limit

 

[Debi]

Okay will do!

 

[Poof]

This is the most exciting news I have heard since BF, I have a few things to get done and will try to get done by 8 or as close as possible to play

 

[KingCurtis]

What happens if you check/fold now and its folded to your BB?

let us know

 

[vinnie]

I'm in the 6-max 5nl game now. You'll know who I am. I am #5.

 

[Debi]

I just jumped on the .02/.05 6 max table

 

[Poof]

I hate 6max but I am in, lol

 

[Aleksei]

Why would there be donks on zone when the only people who know about it are forum regulars?

Because 95% of players at Bovada are donks period.

Anyone having issues getting into the dolphin room? It won't let me in.

I hate speed poker (no reads), but Bovada is anonymous/readless anyway + everyone is an effing donk, so frankly I think playing Zone instead of regular tables might be +EV for me. Especially considering I'm awful at multitabling and 1-tabling Zone = 200+ hands/hr.

I am pretty sure it crashed. There was some speculation that 85 players might be the max. But the 5nl 6-max currently has more than that. I also haven't seen any change in the Dolphin stats for hours.

There are reports on reddit from people claiming that the game froze on them and they can't get back in--while it shows them still logged in. I think we broke that one.
