Party Poker has introduced one of the most attractive offerings in the fast-fold poker market - FastForward Poker.

One of the oldest and most reputable online poker rooms in the industry, PartyPoker, has just joined the ranks of sites that offer a "fast fold" poker variant.

They call it FastForward Poker, and it is currently available at low stakes of No-Limit Hold'em, from $0.02/$0.04 to $0.50/$1. Higher stakes and Pot Limit Omaha are on their way.

Like other "fast fold" poker variants, each time you fold a hand while playing FastForward Poker, you're instantly moved to a new table and dealt a new hand. This makes it possible to play hundreds of hands per hour at a single table.

There are a few things that make FastForward Poker stand out from similar offerings at other poker rooms. First of all, heads-up tables are offered in addition to full ring ones.

Secondly, PartyPoker has a larger player pool than most other sites, and thus there will usually be players at all available stakes. Finally, FastForward Poker seems to run quite smoothly compared to some alternatives.

If you don't have a PartyPoker account - or you have one but haven't played there lately - we recommend you check out FastForward Poker for some fast-paced action.
