Default Re: Foxwoods 2/4: $10 an hour? (kinda long)

Beating a low limit game like this is very hard/impossible depending on the amount of rake. The calculations I came up with to justify this is as follows.

Say you win 1.5 BB/Hour which is generous at best, so you play for 8 hours in a session and you're up on average say $48 dollars per session, and for simplicities sake you win 1 pot an hour or just 8 total pots either way. And they take the near max for each pot. So in this case you're being raked $40ish (10% 5 max) so the rake is accounting for about half of your entire winnings(40/88). So I think if you can find a 2/4 game that has a smaller rake, say a 3 max(I don't know if these exist outside of the internet) then obviously 2/4 is very beatable, but I don't think you can outrun the rake at this limit in the long run.

Note: This doesn't include any Bad Beat Jackpots dollars, tipping etc.
