  Most of us will have seen or at least be aware of how Rush Poker from Full Tilt has come up with a really innovative way of playing poker that appeals to a large section of the poker playing community.
  
  Since Rush Poker came along, it is now possible to log in for 15 minutes to play a quick game when you're pushed for time.
  
  The concept has been taken on firmly and although it's not been around for long, there are thousands of dedicated players on the tables at any one time.
  
  Now, here's the question.   What do you think could make the game even better or could displace Rush Poker and the most innovative product since poker came online?
  
  Is it speed?  Different rules?  A new type of poker game?  A different site setup?  More exciting tournaments? 
  
  Share your thoughts on whatever it is you think would make online poker even more exciting than it already is.

  Simple answer: Let us all be able to deposit LOL. but anyway, I personally don't think poker needs to be changed. I'm not even a big fan of Rush poker. I don't think it's real poker if you can't play it in real life. But that is just me. If people like it, then cool.
  
  But I have one idea. And most probably won't like it, including the poker sites. But it could be a cool option for players like me.
  
  Have special tourneys or maybe even cash games that you can only play one table at a time.
  
  It would be more in the real life spirit of the game.
  
  So if you register to that special tourney or cash game that is the only table you can play in the duration of your session. 
  
  Granted most online players would never like this idea. But I think it would create a more pure form of the game. And might find a niche market.

  Hire a bunch of attractive females and have a poker table you play at online where one girl is assigned to each seat (i.e. there is a girl assigned for your seat as well). So when you beat someone your opponents assigned female has to remove an article of clothing and vice versa.
  
  It could be done tournament style (turbo format) so that once your girl is out of clothes you're out of the tournament (perhaps you can win clothes aka "chips" from others and keep your girl clothed and yourself in the game?)

  I definetely like the idea. It is very visual who stands where at the tournament by having a look at the "girls" around the table...meanwhile you won't feel that bad when kicked out (at least your girl is naked )

  I would like to see the time to decide to act made shorter, more time is wasted by someone constantly playing so slow or timing out every hand. Probably not gonna happen though due to possible connection issues.

  I think this would just online poker, and poker in general, an even worse image from the public's viewpoint. They'd think all poker players are just perverts.

  I think you'll find this isn't that much of a new innovative idea - you're just looking at the wrong types of "poker" sites.
