888poker accidentally releases new online poker game Flopomania

888poker leaks new online poker game Flopomania

A couple of days ago a new online poker game called “Flopomania” suddenly appeared for a few hours in the 888poker lobby.

After that 888poker publically apologized to its players for the error via Twitter:

Accident or great marketing?

Now the whole poker world is wondering if it was really an accident or simply brilliant marketing by one of the leading online poker networks?

What speaks in favour of an accident is the fact, that the game suddenly appeared in the lobby next to the Blast Spin & Gos and was available for real-money play.

What is Flopomania and how does it work?

We asked for some feedback from involved players in the 888poker Forum to find out how Flopomania works?

Flopomania 888poker

Involved players told us that Flopomania is a variation of No-Limit Hold’em with only three betting rounds. The preflop betting round is removed and the game starts directly on the flop.

In addition to that, there is a third forced bet in form of an Ante, which has to be put by all players. This should generate a lot of action and produce big pots!

Important Features of Flopomania

We have summed up the most important features of the new online game here:

  • Variation of Texas Hold’em with only 3 betting rounds.
  • Additional forced bet in form of an Ante, which has to be put by all players.
  • More action, more defends and more multiway pots.
  • No Preflop Play, the game starts on the flop.
  • Consequently the game is much faster with one betting round less.

Flopomania could be a game changer

Flopomania could become a huge success and become a game changer as the additional Ante makes it a real action game.

Now it makes much more sense to defend as everybody has already invested money in the pot. This should result in more multiway pots and it will be more difficult to protect and isolate.

Big pocket pairs like Aces or Kings will be much more difficult to protect pre and cracked much more often, due to the favorable pot odds.

Flopomania is offered in two different forms

Furthermore, the game was available in two different variations: Deep Stack and Short Stack.
