Definitely an interesting and fun format. There is more discussion here: http://www.4kingpoker.com/forum/full...er-format.html

Personally I don't like it much - 'readless' poker (or very little in the way of reads).

I've found it very swingy.... up & down a few buyins very quickly. As far as badbeats go on cashtables, I've had more on RUSH than on anywhere else (I believe it's due to the anonymity of it with players being moved constantly... you'll see some of them calling off on the flop then shipping it on the turn with a gutterball (or some other garbage),.. something you wouldn't typically see on reg. tables anywhere near as much). It can be a good thing (playing with the aggro spewballs) but also pretty swingy.
Not the greatest format if one has difficulty keeping their emotions in check (like 'me', lol).

Agreed P.O., but I've managed to hold my own and then some. Takes a bit of a diff strategy than you might normally use and note taking is essential. Time of day also seems to make a huge diff with my results.

Best thing about rush though is how fast you can accumulate pts to clear a bonus, since tilt uses the dealt vs contributed method and the # of hands per hour in rush is 3 to 4 times greater.

It's good if you have ADD I guess or want to grind out 100000000fpps and be a rakeback pro.

Like others have said, it takes the read out of the game and is -EV for me.

+EV for decent Omaha players
