Pokerroom vs. Party rake analysis at $2/$4 (Pokerrom 73% higher!)
 

Method, I took 3 "average" tables from Pokertracker and the first 60 hands of each table. I applied the 180 hands to the rake structure of both Party and Pokerroom.

The rake taken percentage on average as size of the pot is as follows:

Party Poker: 3.36%
Pokerrrom: 5.84%



Average table defined by taking average pot over 40,000 hands. Found the 3 tables closest to this that had a large enough sample size.

Haahahhahahah good one [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] .

Good job Uglyowl. Those greedy foookers.

This shite ain't gonna fly PokerRoom. Can you hear us?

Re: Pokerroom vs. Party rake analysis at $2/$4 (Pokerrom 73% higher!)
 

FWIW, it costs the average player 1.4bb/100 over the Party structure!

Try overcoming that, especially the marginally winning players like myself.

Re: Pokerroom vs. Party rake analysis at $2/$4 (Pokerrom 73% higher!)
 

Actually it IS more fair now:

Pokerroom is 73% worse than Party before considering rake.
Pokeroom rake is 73% worse than Party.

Sounds fair to me . . .

Can you please explain how you arrived at that figure? I'm not questioning the conclusion, necessarily, I'm just having a hard time figuring out how you moved from a pot percentage to big bets per hundred hands.

Thanks.

Re: Pokerroom vs. Party rake analysis at $2/$4 (Pokerrom 73% higher!)
 

Sure no problem.

Using my analysis the extra rake is $0.548/hand.

The average player wins 10 of 100 hands say paying an extry $5.48.

$5.48/$4 (lost rake/big bet) = 1.37bb/100 extra lost

If you need anything else clarified I will be happy to.

from datamining and I have learned over time that the average player at Party pays ~2.44bb/100 or $9.76 per 100 hands in rake at $2-4 LHE -dont forget this is from a sample with 30K players so that includes alot of losers that play too many hands [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

how does that fit in to your data owl? nice job
