Default Re: New Pokerroom Rate Structure?

So if you are playing a 2/4 table, you'll never see a $3 rake. Ever.

In a typical session of about 100 hands, I see two, maybe three pots raked $3. The rake increase to 10% at certain other pot size break points will have a much greater impact than the reduction of the rake cap.

The only games I see this helping are the low end NL where the pot sizes are often huge compared to the size of the blinds. $100NL players will be getting a huge break. Low end limit players are getting screwed.

I would also submit that a work slowdown would be a much more effective means of protest than a boycott.

If you play and intentionally slow down the tables to "protest", I hope your account gets banned. That is just stupid. If you don't like the rake, go somewhere else. Do you think that if a bunch of people slowed the games down they would just lower the rake across the board? That is stupid.
