I am curious to know if anyone knows of any studies that can answer the above question and/or what your best guess may be. Below I will try to answer it for myself and welcome any opinions as a challenge to my logic.
I play about 10 hours a week at the $3-6 level on average. This translates to about 500 hours per year. (~50 weeks x 10 hrs) A rough average number of hands in the games I play is about 60 per hour. The total number of hands in the year for me is then 30,000. (60 hands x 500 yearly hours) The average pot size is about $30 I imagine. The rake taken from each pot is $1.00 (I am guessing on average). Thus the total amount of rake taken per year is $30,000 (30,000 hands per year x $1.00 avg. rake per hand). I am one of an average of 10 players in the game, so my average contribution to the yearly rake is $3,000 ($30,000 yearly rake/ 1/10). Again, reflecting on the above I realize that there may be some mathematical points that I am missing and I am looking forward to hearing alternative ideas. I also think that if the above is accurate, or close to accurate, that every online player is potentially a golden nugget for each competing site! |

I'm 4 tabling the 5-10 6 max and I play for a living.
15k hands per week at an average rake of .22 per hand 50 weeks a year means they take $165,000 in rake each year. |

oh well, i like to think we are enriching the lives of thousands of indians by bringing them out of poverty. but it is a proven fact that the whole of partypoker running costs are actually payed for directly from DcfrThs's rake, and the rest of it is going straight into a bunch of Dikshits pocketsees. /rant. |
