Do You Play Differently in Fast-Fold Games?

But I've read that people tend to play tighter because they can fold and immediately get another two cards.

I really like fast-fold games (e.g,. Zoom on PS, Snap on 888, etc.) because I can play a lot more hands and learn, as opposed to waiting around for others to move. But I've read that people tend to play tighter because they can fold and immediately get another two cards. But I play the same way in fast-fold as in traditional ring games. How about you?

Bad poker players (fish) tend to play less hands in fast fold formats, but this is because they play way to many hands on regular tables. For example your typical 53/13 whale might become a 25/13 in fast fold games, because he dont get bored, when he fold his junk. This by the way is the main reason, why winrates are going to be massively lower in fast fold games. And the reason why I more or less stopped playing them.

Ah, good to know. I do get bored on traditional (non-fast fold) games. But I'm also not too good at multi-tabling.
