2 Questions about Party rake and bonuses

[2easy]

well illustrated, iggy.

one small factor, that proves your point even more, is that 6max has a $2 max rake.

thus, rakeback would need to be closer to 39%, even if EVERY pot reached the max rake, to break even to bonus.

and to the op, as has also been correctly stated, under this party format, there is NEVER a scenario in which bonus with rakeback is worse than just one or the other.
