absolute bonus change?
 

rake is now 50 cents to earn a point? heard it on bw. Anyone can confirm this?

Re: absolute bonus change?
 

not as of today.

I just checked BW and do not see any thread on this subject.

Re: absolute bonus change?
 

it's under bonus disc.
their cashier page has the change
so it appears to be only a matter
of time. They're getting killed at 1/2
esp. full table. Collecting .25 and
paying out .90 + rb. At 2/4 and up it
should still clear at a decent rate.

Damn it, I don't get rb either. This is crappy.

Re: absolute bonus change?
 

they keeping rake at 5%??? This means $10 pots? Oh that sucks.

Re: absolute bonus change?
 

Ok, now I play only 2/4 and higher.

FWIW, My PT shows

At 1/2 6 max 59.6% are raked at .25 or more and 38.5% are raked at at .50 or more.

At 2/4 6 max, 79.7% are raked at .25 or more and 61.8% are raked at .50 or more.

Re: absolute bonus change?
 

Well this sucks. I for one won't be playing the 2/4, the minimum pot size for rake in that game is $5 which takes out a lot of money. Maybe if they changed the minimum pot size for rake to $10 I would consider it, but for now on I'll only be playing $3/6 and up.

This is bad news for players obviously, but there's no way Absolute wasn't losing money to players at the .5/1 and 1/2 levels, so this move was a long time in coming for them.

Re: absolute bonus change?
 

it appears to have started. Just played 150 hands
PT says 90 were raked, yet i recieved about 50pts.
