Revolution network to introduce Fast Fold'em, BuzzPoker first to launch

BuzzPoker (formerly known as Pokertube Speed Poker) was founded in 2012 and started as skin on the InstaDeal network, a fast fold only poker network that also supports mobile devices such as smart phones and iPads. In late January 2013 they also launched a white label skin on the Revolution Network but kept their own processing and were thus never concerned by the reportedly slow withdrawals throughout the network with some exceptions such as Intertops. They also never accepted nor currently do accept new sign ups from the USA either.

Further changes to the overall offer included casino games and the most recent product development was Buzz Odds, a sports betting platform. With the new and improved mobile client, it has been possible to use this feature for some months now and recent promotions target sports bettors as well.

About two weeks ago, Bovada announced the launch of the first US friendly fast fold poker version on their desktop client and as of today the Revolution Network has joined this competition as well.

So far Fast Fold'em has only been implemented on BuzzPoker's Revolution skin but other sites are expected to follow in the not so distant future as well. Upon first glance it appears that the tables on Fast Fold'em are shared 1-1 with the Instadeal network and only 5max tables are listed despite one 8 handed pool on Instadeal. This has since been confirmed by a poker room representative and he described the project as "strategic partnership".

Since launching the Revolution skin it was possible for players to play on Instadeal and Revolution at the same time, this is still the case however you can only join a pool once and the Instadeal network remains fast fold poker only. To celebrate the arrival of this latest improvement, BuzzPoker will be hosting an exclusive €2,000 Rake Race from August 26th to September 8th. The two week long rake race awards cash prizes to the top 10 and the winner walks home with juicy €700. 

For each hand on the fast fold poker tables you earn bonus points and the race payout is as follows:

1st €700 2nd €500 3rd €300 4th €200 5th €100 6th €60 7th €50 8th €40 9th €30 10th €20

All hands on said fast fold poker tables count, thus you can join the action via theBuzz Revolution download client (PC only), Instant Play via browser (PC and Mac),  mobile platforms such as iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows and Blackberry as well as the Fast Poker download client aka Instadeal network (PC and Mac).

If you don't have an account yet on BuzzPoker, sign up via Pokerspace and either earn unlimited PS Points as you play or weekly Rakeback credited to the account (30% for Instadeal and 36% for Revolution). Withdrawals to eWallets such as Skrill are reportedly processed within 1-2 business days at the utmost.
