Re: Why there will never be a rake war (longwinded)
I agree that most customers being ignorant of the rake factor is critical, but even a soft, soft game will eventually become unbeatable due to the high rake, and at that pointm even the TAGs won't play there.
And the fish will start noticing at a certain point.
Also, one thing you're ignoring is the possibilty of online poker becoming legal in the US, at which point the competition will get INSANE. Maybe it won't lead to a "rake war" per se, but it could lead to some sweet "bonus wars," which would have about the same effect.
