In October, the regular meeting of PokerStars officials and representatives of the players took place on the Isle of Man, at the market leader online poker room’s headquarters. Lead employees and elected player representatives discussed their experiences in a number of topics and the official press release from PokerStars came thereafter from Steve ‘PokerStars Steve’ Day with the details via the 2+2 forum. In this, the room announced the introduction of the Zoom heads-up tables.
Even though the launch was scheduled for December, the games became publicly available on 26 November. Players can now sit down to Omaha, No Limit Hold’em and Fixed Limit Hold’em Zoom HU tables. Limits available are $0.25/$0.50 to $25/$50 in NLHE and PLO and up to $15/$30 in Fixed Limit games.

At the time of taking our screenshot, there was no action on the $25/$50 limits in NLHE and PLO, only 'SkaiWalkurrr' was waiting for opponents at the Zoom HU tables. Lower stakes, however, have instantly been invaded by players.
The introduction of the Zoom heads-up games explicitly aims at solving or at least diminishing the bumhunting issue. If recreational players get to like the game type, regulars will have little choice but to follow them, inevitably being forced to play each other as well, as a result.
