pokerstars futureWhat is PokerStars future under new ownership going to be like? Since The Rational Group has been acquired by Amaya Gaming, what is the future going to be like for companies PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker?

The best part about Amaya Gaming is the amount of gaming licenses they have worldwide with more than 100 licenses including: UK and New Jersey.

Under new ownership PokerStars future in US is looking bright and will launch in New Jersey within the next few weeks.

Full Tilt Poker has dropped significantly in poker rankings since Amaya have started to focus on online casino games and new FullTilt live dealer casino.

Many PokerStars pros have been dropped from the roster the latest incident was with WSOP champ Joe Cada who terminated his contract because the site would no longer offer him a 100% rakeback deal.

This week thousands of PokerStars Affiliates were dropped due not bringing enough players or not actively promoting the site.

fast fold pokerFast Fold Poker games have become increasing popular with online poker players and there are many poker sites which offer the game as a regular feature on their poker software.

Fast fold poker has revolutionized the game of poker and provides more action than regular cash games and tournaments. Players get to play up to 400 poker hands within an hour and there is less time sitting around waiting for a playable hand.

Another great feature of these Fast Fold Poker games is that it is almost impossible for players to read your playing style as each new hand will be on a different table up against a pool of random players.

It also suits players of all poker playing styles with aggressive players able to steal pots but not knowing who they are up against and tight players waiting for the right opportunity to play their best hands.
