PokerStars challenge celebrates 2012 release of Zoom poker

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Fast-fold poker seems like a standard format now, but four years ago there were very few sites that had it. Zoom poker changed all that by enabling players to instantly fold and see a new hand straight away at a new table. The first ever Zoom hand was won by Doña Blasa from Spain. Further commentary is on the PokerStars.com Blog here, including commentary from Team PokerStars Pro Online player Roy Bhasin.
