It looks like the action game taking over the nosebleed stakes could be coming to the biggest online poker room in the world.

The new formats keep on coming at PokerStars and it looks like the next game offering we can expect in the client is the game which is taking over the Super High Rollers, Short Deck Poker.

pokerfuse were the first to notice the table image for the new format added to the image files in the poker client. It goes by the name 6+ Hold'em which is the same name used by iPoker, who currently offer the format.

No word yet on when, or if, we will see it in the PokerStars lobby but if so it will join Unfold, Split Hold'em and Showtime Hold'em as new formats introduced in the last year.

Short Deck Poker is a variant of No Limit Hold'em with the 2,3,4 and 5 cards removed, making for a faster action game. The hand rankings are different, as trips beat a straight and a flush beats a full house. You can make a straight with A,6,7,8,9 upwards.

While as a format it has been around in some places since 2015, it has gained popularity this year after being featured in the Triton High Roller Series live streams, and will also feature this month in the US Poker Masters, streamed on PokerGO.

Also in the PokerStars image files is a format called Fusion, which has been there for a while and no word yet on what it could be.
