I have tried to look at it at the limit that I prefer - 1-1 NL full ring game and compared it to partys NL, and although they are shifting beeing most expensive, it looks like party is slightly worse:
NL 1$-1$ 50$ NL
Pot P.room party
size rake rake
1 0,10 0,05
2 0,10 0,10
3 0,10 0,25

A few points. PR has horrible software much fewer games going on then Party, and bonuses that take a much longer time to clear. Not only that, but the rake in limit games is in fact a lot higher than Party's.

Agree! It is amazing that they cant fix it! Multitabling is a nightmare.

That is also right. But the most time you are able to play 8 tables 1-1 NL at pokerromm - so thats fine with me.

Also right. But I use to do pretty good at pokerroom - so that is not really the problem if the rake isnt worse than other places.

I dont know about that - I havent looked into that - but considering all the angry posts about the new rake structure I believe you might be right here!

Any site that rakes $.80 on a $8 pot, or $2 for a $24 pot is too greedy and high priced for me.
