$300 buy-in NL Live - $4 rake on every flop - best way to beat it?
I'm curious about these $300 buy-in live NL games that have $3 rake on every flopped hand and $1 jackpot rake every hand flopped or not. The blinds are $2 and $5 with stacks ranging from $100 to $2,000. Just wondering what you guys think is the best general strategy for playing those games.
Thanks

You are certainly paying a very high percentage on most pots that are not very large. Even when you steal the blinds, you are paying $1 to the jackpot. When you raise to $20 or $25 pre-flop and get called, you are paying $4 every time. Brutal rake, just wondering if it is beatable even against bad players. Thanks

I've got a $2-5 (sometimes 5-10) live pot limit game that usually takes $5 every normal pot or maybe $10 on a big pot. It's a complete ripoff and the guys that play there are either ignorant of the ripoff or the money doesn't really matter, b/c they are there for fun.... So basically, despite the rake structure it's still as beatable as a redheaded stepchild.

IMO, the best way to beat games with rakes of $4+/hand is to run the game and skim the rake yourself.
