Available at cash game tables, we also offer exciting Zoom tournaments.
These are fast-paced events which, just like Zoom cash games, will move players to a new table as soon as they fold their hand. So, the action never slows down and you'll never have to wait for the next hand to be dealt.
- ZOOM Poker is a way of playing poker at PokerStars. It´s different, it´s fast and it’s a whole lot of fun. Instead of playing one table with up to 10 players, you can play a pool of up to 200 tables and 2000.

Zoom Poker is available in both cash games and tournaments (SNG and MTT), on all PC and Mac clients, and on the PokerStars mobile app. How Does it Work? When you press Fast Fold, Lee Jones swoops down from the heavens, re-shuffles the deck, and drops you at a table with a new hand and 8 new players from the pool.
These tournaments play in a Zoom format until the final three tables are reached. At that stage, the tournaments revert to a regular format.
Look for the red 'Z' symbol in the tournament lobby to identify these tournaments, or simply search for 'zoom' in the tournament search filter.
