Default Re: Lowest beatable limit?

[ QUOTE ]
Yes, the California situation is different because the rake is not a percentage of the pot, but a straight charge.

If there is no flop, they dont't take the normal drop, but usually will still take $1 at the lower limits.

Not all CA casinos skip raking a pot with no flop. A number of the ones around the Bay Area take the $3+1 at the lower limits immediately, before any cards are even dealt. The only time you get a break is when the # of players drops. It might be $3 at 7+ players, $2 at 6, $1 at 5 or fewer. At some point they stop taking the $1 jackpot drop too.
