Rush Poker Strategy by Brandon Adams
Improve your Rush Poker Strategy with tips from Poker Pro Brandon Adams
Rush Poker seems to be taking off the ground quicky on Full Tilt Poker and I really hope you are getting the most out of it!
If not, this post will certainly help you out! But before I tell you about it, you should know that I have already made one post on Rush Poker Tips before. You can read it here: How to play Rush Poker: Basics and Tips from Howard Lederer.
Since then another professional poker player, Brandon Adams, has published his thoughts about Strategy in Rush Poker games. Due to the fact that online Rush Poker games are so new, every strategy tips about this poker form is more than welcome to get familiar with.
That is why I suggest all Rush Poker Players to further improve their Rush Poker Strategy by reading the following article written by Brandon Adams: Thinking about Strategy in Rush Poker
All those who have read the tips from Howard Lederer already know that one of the advantages of playing Rush Poker over the normal online poker games is that you get to play many more hands in Rush Poker.
There are estimates that with Rush Poker you are able to play approximately 4 times more hands than with normal poker games. While this is true, the number of hands played in Rush poker also depends on how fast you are with playing poker in general.
Just like you will be able to read in the article about strategy in rush poker by Brandon Adams, if you are above average when it comes to playing speed, you are able to play twice as much hands as an average player!
Enough talk from me, here are some of the highlights in the above mentioned Rush Poker Strategy article:
Rush Poker Strategy: Taking advantage of Quick Fold Button
When playing Rush Poker, you have an option to fold out of turn. This feature is called »quick fold button«. This basically means you get seated to another table immediately after pressing the quick fold button.
Ofcourse, the opponents at that table have no idea that you used that button, at least until the move to act gets to you. When that happens, your fold happens very quickly and it is obvious to the rest of the table that you used »quick fold«.
Now here comes the best part. Regular Rush Poker players take notes on who is quick folding or folding out of turn and are taking advantage of that.
As said, only regular players can be able to determine such players as they keep seeing some of the same players (eventhough the pool of players in Rush Poker consist out of 1000+ players).
So, how can you take advantage of players who are using »quick fold«? Well, constantly stealing blinds from them is one possible way of using such information!

How to beat Micro Stakes Online Sit & Go Poker Tournaments
Learn how to beat Micro Stakes 180-Seats Online Sit & Go Poker Tournaments by watching the Video below!
The video below will help those of you who want to learn how to beat Micro Stakes Online Sit and Go Poker Tournaments. Basically it is an analysis of the hands played by the poker player nicknamed as Androgyny from the 180-Seats Sit & Go NL Texas Holdem Tournament that took place on Full Tilt Poker.
These $2 buyin micro stakes Multi-Table Tournaments are pretty much standard on FTP and fill with players very quicky. I would definitely suggest you to try them out from time to time, if you are not playing them already ofcourse.
With that said, lets say something about this 46 minutes long video. The speaker doing the analysis is Fitzy. He goes through several hands that were played in this micro stakes tournament, giving some valuable insights into what the best decision in certain position is.
Perhaps you will not agree with all the moves he suggests (I would probably act differently in some spots), but in general I think his analysis is useful, especially if you are just beginning with Sit & Go Poker Tournaments.
It covers big pairs, flush draws, top pairs, playing from the blinds and some other quite common NL Texas Holdem situations. It also lets you see how other players are playing their hands, so it definitely will not hurt if you watch it.
Enough from me, here is the video:
That is it for now. Hope you enjoyed the video and learn something new on how to beat Micro Stakes 180-Seats Online Sit & Go Poker Tournaments. Ofcourse, you can always leave your feedback in the comments below!

Announcing another Online Poker Room: Chili Poker
Hey there! I am sure you all noticed already: Online Poker Guide has became an affiliate for the Online Poker Room Chili Poker! This has actually happened somewhere in August 2009, but I have not made any blog post about this online poker room up to date. Well this is about to change!
I have only managed to put up the Chili Poker banner so far, which can be seen in the upper right corner of this blog. It is available for you to use it in case you decide to make an account with them. Alternatively, you can click here to sign up as well.
Anyways, there is not much yet that I can tell you about Chili Poker since I still have to take a closer look at it. I don’t even know whether it accepts U.S. players or not! In case you have any information that can help us out here and are willing to share it with us, then please leave it in the comments below.
But as I said, this will change soon as I am going to make a detailed review of what they can offer to us as poker players. Hope you will enjoy it!
Liz Lieu is Chili Poker’s Representative
Actually, there is something I can already tell you about this poker site. It is represented by Liz Lieu, one of the well established and quite famous female professional poker player, who is also a model.
Besides that, I have seen a couple of Poker TV Shows with her in the line-up, but not as much to give you any serious analysis or opinion on how she plays poker.
The only opinion about her that I can give you is this: She certainly looks good! Her pictures for the Chili Poker Christmas Promotions are certainly worth taking a look at! What do you think about it? : )
To conclude this announcement of Chili Poker on Online Poker Guide, here is one hand from EPT 2 in Monte Carlo, where Liz Lieu busts out in the blinds battle. Just to remind you that even professional poker players make mistakes sometimes.
