![]() Now since we all know the games are getting tighter at Paradise, due to the reduction of new fishy players, the expected earnings are going to decline. This means the rakes are becoming an ever increasing price to pay for this smaller action. I say we boycott Paradise, and send them emails of how we feel. I think it could be effective if large numbers of us even just reduce our play time, rather than flat out boycott. I also think this message may be deleted! Paradise is pulling - what? - $400,000 a day in rake? They can stand a little price reduction. N |

![]() Boycott and play where?I play paradise everyday and other sites (planet and highlands)but everyone should admit -paradise has the best and fastest software ,they have reasonably fast payouts,they have good customer service and most of all they have more players than all other sites combined.I think if any sites should be reducing rake it should be paradises' competition. |

![]() Play where, who cares? Play with the kids. Do that home remodel job you've been putting off. Read a book. We need to let Paradise know they charge too friggin much. I only mention Paradise because they ARE the only place to play. Get them to lower their rake and everyone else has to follow don't they? |

![]() Ive basically boycotted Paradise. I used to play shorthanded, and was excited about the 5 hadned tables but the rake for them is just too high, so until they actually address my emails about lowering the rake in those games, Im not planning to play there again. I am playing cccpoker and pokerstars now anyway. |

![]() If you're not happy playing at a site you shouldn't play there. The same is true with a brick and mortor poker room. I quit playing at The Las Vegas Hilton poker room many years ago because it was so poorly run and us players were treated so badly. The same applied to the old Caesars Palace poker room. By the way, given the number of players that Paradise has, I suspect that the vast majority of participants won't agree with you. |

![]() In the last 3 years Paradise has taken half a BILLION out of the poker community. How long can this possibly last? Is there really an endless list of fish willing to play over the internet. Do you guys think that paradise has raked about what $500,000,000, the very good players have made maybe $5,000,000, and the poker community is down $505,000,000. This can not last, the poker community is just mot that large. What do you guys think? |

![]() They've only dealt a little over 100M hands total. Figure maybe a buck a hand, possibly less. Still, it's a lot of money. I wonder how it compares to Commerce? |
