I like those games. You can really make volume there.
As a German player, I can only play 4 tables due to the regulations of our excellent politicians.
If I play four “normal” tables, I die of boredom.
It's good for me that there are fast fold games.

I tried to beat this format years ago on pokerstars and gave up after a massive tilt session where I lost several hundred dollars.Station_Master said:
Everything just tells me that u need a tracker to really play this format comfortably, especially in bigger pools with a lot of unknown opponents.
Do u play it? I really like the availability and I'm thinking of slowly getting back into it.

A little bit. I mainly play reg tables, but these days I will load up a bit zoom whilst on waiting lists for reg tables. I quite like the speed of the game and the pool I play (25z on 888) is usually quite soft.
I don't have tons of hands on my.opponents yet so tracker is only.of limited use, but definitely worth using one as some info always better than none.

Yes.
I play 'fast-fold' format on a lot of sites... most don't allow trackers.
Partypoker has smaller player pool and is great to play on for 2nl, 10nl & 25nl. I've built my bankroll up on there from $100 to $1k+ a bunch of times.
I'm taking notes on there regularly... it doesn't take long to see who the regulars are. It's helpful to have a color-coding system.
I also play 888Poker 'SNAP', SportsBetting ' ACR, GG, Stars, iPoker, and occasionally WPTglobal (Pace... they only have 1 buyin level that gets any players in it, it's 5nl with a straddle so it's basically 10nl)
Any & all are beatable without a tracker (and some you can't use a Tracker). Time of day along with day of the week can make a BIG difference in how the tables play out.
I remember in the old days playing fast fold on FullTilt and seemed to enjoy it, but played mainly as a novelty.
Now, if you maintain a VPIP of 15 - 25% and watch your PFR%, it might be something to consider as being profitable over a long period of time. Also keep track of your opponents.
Wouldn’t this be similar to playing 3-4 tables at once?

Yes on Fulltilt it was called "Rush Poker"enno said:
On 1 Fast Fold table you can see approx. 200-225 hands/hr. but it really depends upon which site (so yes, approx. equivalent to 3 tables).
These days all of the regulars on the fast fold tables are playing 6-max and are 4-tabling them (seeing ~900 hands/hr.)
Micro limits up to NL25 are definitely beaten without any trackers, there even without trackers it is clear with whom you play and how you need to play with them. Especially since many poker rooms already have their own statistics, which is quite enough.Suns of Beaches said:
