For those of you who play on fulltilt you will know what Im talking about and for those of you who dont read on

Fulltilt has come out with a different kind of table that you can play at, a speed table, and as you can tell from its name its suppose to offer faster paced action. What the deal is, is that you have a shorter time to act and they have gotten rid of the animation (like your chips moving into the pot). They have these tables for $1/2 2/4 3/6 and 5/10 NLHE table

My opinon about these tables is that having these things wont make the action that much faster, many 5 more hands per hour. Also I kind of like having the Animations when I play. It makes the play seem a bit more "live" instead of online

I was wondering if you guys have the same opion that I do or not.

Many other sites (ie. Prima) offer Turbo tables, where you have 7 seconds to act. I once took too long using the slide bar to make a raise and timed-out, thus folding my Boat. I was pissed.

Yeah, many players multi-table and let one table time-out while concentrating on another. As long as I'm winning it's a minor annoyance.

Iceberg.

I like playing speed or turbo tables. I find that the fast paced enviornment is much better for clearing bonuses as well as just getting many more hands in. I don't like playing in a table where half of the players are doing something else and not paying attention. This way if they don't act in time they check or fold. Watch out though, I notice that in a Turbo table that people are more likely to click call than anything else because they don't have time to think over their moves. Thus don't bluff too often.

I truly HATE these tables even though I despise people that drain the clock at regular speed. The fast clock enduces bad play and reckless moves by the fish. I can't stand it.
