Players on the iPoker Network will now be able to enjoy the new Speed Hold'em, a fast fold game developed for the iPoker software. The game will at first be offered at $.02/$.05 up to $.50/$1.
iPoker has introduced a new game format to its players by launching its own fast-fold poker game, the so-called Speed Hold'em.
The game is still in beta testing but was launched for the iPoker client earlier this week, supporting NLHE and PLO games.
The game works in the same way as many other variations of fast-fold poker by allowing players to instantly fold their hands and move to a new table to keep up a high game pace.
The method was first introduced by Full Tilt Poker at the room's Rush Poker and has since grown to other corners in the industry.
Following Full Tilt's closure last summer, the most popular fast-fold
poker game right now is PokerStars' Zoom Poker, which has grown tremendously since its launch this spring.
The new Speed Hold'em will add iPoker to the number of
networks who have their own variations of the popular game, bringing the option to sites like
Titan Poker,
Winner.com and
Poker770.
The first Speed Hold'em games will be available at low stakes in the downloadble iPoker client only, running at $.02/$.05 to $.50/$1.
