2/4 Rake

[sfer]

I remember 2/4. I didn't get rakeback and I didn't think about the rake at all.

In reality, you only pay rake on pots you win, not every hand.

This is not accurate - and if it was, it would not coincide with the formula that you used to calculate your avg. rake / hand earlier in the thread.

I know how rake is calculated on PT on poker sites and what the true definition of it is.

However, the impact of rake is only felt when you win a pot and the three dollars that used to be in it is now sitting next to the dealer. There is no (maybe some in cosidering odds) impact on rake when you lose the hand.
