Default Re: does Party 6-max rake-increase help tight NL100 & under players?

Otherwise, if everyone at a table had 25% rakeback per raked pot that occurred at their table, Party would be losing money every hand, right?

No.

If I'm on a 5-player table that takes a $2-rake on a hand then my contributed rake is $0.40 (each of the 5 players divided by the $2).
If I get 25% rake-back then I get back $0.10 for that hand.
If everyone gets 25% rake-back then they each get $0.10.


So for the $2-rake...if everyone got 25% rake-back then it is only $0.50 that the players are getting back.


Hope this helps you understand how it works.

you are NOT getting 25% of the TOTAL rake. You are only getting 25% of your fraction of the rake.


If every player got 95% rake-back then Party would STILL be making a profit (albeit a pretty darned small one).
