Re: Rake Instead of Blind Increase in Tournaments
The blinds create a pot for the first action. If the rake takes the majority of the blinds value out of the game, why would the first player put in chips? And who would cold call a bet?
Right now if it is 200-100, and I bet 400: I'm playing for 300 profit. In your game my profit would be 150? Less?
Right now if some cold calls my raise there is 400 vs 700 pot. Again in your game the pot is 400 vs 550.
Blinds make action. Rakes kill them.
