Default Re: The toughness of games at absolute

rake-free games are a lot more useful at the low limits. at the higher limits, you lose any game selection, you probably feel somewhat obligated to earn a big rakeback check from them (I'd imagine baronzeus pulls in 10k+ a month in rakeback [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]), and the rake isn't that big to begin with. at 5/10 you are gaining about 1.9 BB/100 compared to 25% RB Party. at 10/20 it's around 1.35. at 25/50 it's around .66 compared to 20/40 on Party. so the benefit gets exponentially smaller. you guys say the 5/10 games suck. can they be worth 1.9 BB/100 less? also it seems like very few are winning serious money on there. maybe that's because baronzeus is taking it all
