Average Rakeback

if the avg rake seems low to you, this is not by any means from seeking out tight tables.

no I wasn't saying that. I was originally quoting 12.5 cents for every RAKED hand, your average includes the 30% of hands which are either not raked and/or did not reach the flop.

I could guess that your rake distribution is somewhere along this line:
30% - no rake
40% - $3 rake (6BB+)
30% - $2 rake (4-5BB)

so every 100 dealt hands your table generates about $180 in rake, average $1.80. so it's perfectly reasonable then.

anyway, $1.77 avg rake divided by 5.47 avg players is indeed 32 cents (for all hands, not just raked hands). that is between 8-10 cents of rakeback between 25-30%, and within the range of your initial post.

25% rakeback is worth approximately 1.0BB/100 at the lower limits,

Wait, does this mean that if I play 45K hands/month I can expect 45000/100 x 1bb ($6) = $2700?!?!?!?!

if you truly play that much (4-tabling 8 hours a day, every day of the month including weekends and holidays), then you can earn 5-8 cents every raked hand at $3/6, which is between $2000-3000 in rake rebate.

For anyone with pokertracker it is very easy to work out the average rake per player per hand. Look at the list of all players and see how much is being lost overall.

At $5/10 6-max it's around $23 per hundred hands, so average rake is 23c/hand.
