2/50, 2/49, 2/48

I gotta quite posting when I'm tired.

I almost find this as funny as a LONG time player at Bike who could not be convinced that a pocket pair had a 1 in 8 chance of hitting trips on the flop. I broke it down for him....2/48, 2/47, 2/46. His quote was: "Well that is just fuzzy math because you can't know that those cards aren't in another player's hand"

If you buy in for $200 and cash out $400, you have made $200. (2+2 DOES =4) It doesn't matter if you paid $5 in rake or $400 during that session. (see 2+2=4)

If i played 2000 hours of 20/40 this year and made $40,000, did I really make $68,000 but payed $28,000 in rake? No!

Let's keep it simple, let's keep it real, let's keep it real simple:

2+2=4

Classic.

Assuming this isn't a troll, the rake is worse at lower limits because it's a bigger % of the BB or pot size. Obviously, whatever you take away from the table at the end of the session has already had the rake deducted.
