Default Increase in Party/skins rake at 6-max

Looks like they're raking $3 when the pot is over $60 (according to http://www.partypoker.com/games/rake.html) now.

They've just done this unannounced it seems, is there anything we can do about it? I'm outraged.

Seems standard. Pokerstars has a max of $3/pot for 6-max

Previously it was max $2 at 6-max, as the rake was divided up against less people.

What with pokerroom first and now this, this is an extremely worrying trend.

All depends on whether there is a full table at 6-max.

Yeah that's something, but it's still terrible compared to before.

Assuming the tables on Party's site are right anyway, they have been wrong before.

I am not too worried. Everyone has seen what a cash cow poker sites have become. If some sites get out of hand, others will benefit.

Remember Paradise used to be king. The power will change if this sh.. continues.

not if no one notices. 95% of players won't.

it appears as though the non 6 max games rake has changed as well....
i've been noticing 5 cent rakes with pots under $2 at the NL 50 tables...

or have i just never noticed before?

Did we not establish that this has always been the case?
