It all evens out. Rake increase, no 2+2 players there.

I actually picked this up a few days ago when one pot I was in was raked $0.80.

I took the $1000-bonus at powerplayer some two weeks ago. I won't be finishing it, still have 8500 points to go. But I guess I'll not even breakeven with this structure since I play $2/4.

I urge everyone that really has withdrawn their money to email the managers and tell them the reason for the withdrawl.

Just cashed out after clearing only half points for the bonus. I won't play there anymore. horrible software too. Theres a new rake free site out there. I don't know if I'm allowed to name it here. Not many players yet, and the software could use some improvement. Poor software and no rake is better than rake and good software. I reccommend others look into this. Also if no rake sites like this get going hopefully it will discourage the big sites from increasing rake, and hopefully encourage lowering the rake.

I really wasnt planning on being back anyways but if I needed another reason not to come back you just gave it to me. I play mainly $25-$50 NL and $2/$4 and I see this as a PUNCH in the face, not even a slap. In fact, Im seriously considering hanging around the $2/$4 tables tonight and educating the people who havent seen this outrage yet.

I posted a few rake structures here: link

UB's 2/4 rake is quite high IMHO... Still not as bad as some of the PR math though.

I'm not playing in pokerroom anymore with that rake structure

Goodbye pokerroom. Way too many other options out there. I encourage everyone to spread the word of pokerroom's well thought out "changes". This will be all over the internet as well as in chat boxes at the tables. I really feel insulted over this whole thing.

Dear Pokerroom,

Please explain to all of us here on these forums exactly why the changes were made, and what benefit these changes have to the players of your site. It seems clear to most of the posters here that these changes were made for your benefit not ours, but if you sincerly believe these changes are going to even out the rake payed by players of various levels and different games ie limit vs no limit then show us what your extensive research proved. I have enjoyed playing on your site in the past, however I will not play there again unless you can justify these changes. I will avoid berating you like a lot of other poster's for now, but put your money where your mouth is and let's here what the real reasons for these changes are.
