Rush & Cash — The Fastest Cash Game in Poker

In regular cash 70% of hands you\'re not in action — either folded early or watching two other players. Rush & Cash eliminates this. In a hand — play. Not in a hand — move to the next.

Meaning: more hands per hour, more decisions, more Rakeback per unit time. For recreational or professional players — most efficient way to build volume.

• No player reads: You don\'t see the same players — harder to build personal reads.
• Tighter players on average: Easy to fold with no "investment" in the table.
• Loose 3-bets less effective: Harder to intimidate — they just fold and move on.
• Value Betting matters more: Not many table-dynamic exploits — every hand is a vacuum.
• Table Selection vanishes: No more picking "fish tables" — pool is everything.

Standard cash bankroll is 20-30 buy-ins, but because of the high volume (250-350 hands/hour) it's safer to hold 30-40 buy-ins. At NL50 ($5 buy-in, 100BB) that's $150-$200 minimum. Standard deviation runs 80-100BB/100, so 20-30 buy-in swings over 3,000-5,000 hands are normal.

• Rakeback/hour: at ~$0.05-$0.15 rake per hand and 300 hands/hour, you contribute $15-$45/hour in rake; with 30-50% Rakeback that's $5-$22/hour back.
• Realistic win-rate: a winning NL50 6-max player targets 3-6BB/100, i.e. 9-18BB/hour at 300 hands/hour.
• Combined hourly: Rakeback + win-rate can reach $10-$25/hour at NL50, vs $3-$7/hour in regular cash.
• Downswings: a 10-buy-in downswing over 4,000 hands is statistically normal — don't move up stakes to "fix" it.

With no gaps between hands, multi-tabling requires different focus. Experienced players run 2-4 tables (vs 8-12 in slow cash). Too many tables leads to accidental auto-folds on good hands. Start with 2 tables, track BB/100 over 5,000-10,000 hands, then scale up.
