Re: Pacific Poker increased the rake to $5.

I always thought with increased competition the rake would drop? Where are the posters that have an economics degree, please tell us how Pacific Poker(and other sites) is defying the laws of economics?

I believe both live and online that when the rake increases the quality of the good sold increases. I mean it drives out some marginal winners that now lose because of the increase in rake making it more enjoyable for both the losing players and the highly skilled players who no longer have to compete against the marginal winners. I know in every market I have seen the higher the rake the better the game.
