Fast Fold Poker
Fast fold poker is an online cash game in which you are dealt a new hand at a new table as soon as you fold.
The simple explanation
In fast fold poker, folding moves you at once to another table with a new hand. You do not wait for the old hand to finish. This makes the game much faster. It is also called Zoom on PokerStars, Zone on Ignition and Bovada, and Snap on 888poker.
A closer look
Fast fold poker changes play: because you see many more hands per hour, players fold marginal hands more often and take fewer risks. Table dynamics are different too, since opponents change on each hand and reads are hard to build. Many players adjust by playing a tighter, more disciplined style.
A practical example
A player folds a weak hand and immediately sees a new hand at a different table, without waiting for the first hand to end.
Full explanation

Fast fold poker, also known as Zoom Poker, is an online cash game variant in which a player is dealt another hand at a new table straight after folding.
Different sites use different names: Zoom on PokerStars, Zone on Ignition and Bovada, and Snap on 888poker.
Since you move to a new table every hand, you see many more hands per hour than at a regular table.
Players adapt by folding more weak hands and by relying less on reads.
