The Us dollar does come close to ruling the world. The point is pretty much the rest of Europe uses the Euro. The pound makes no sense.

The pound makes a lot of sense and thank god we didnt go into the euro, which we would have been locked into at a quite high exchange rate on a weak currency that is affected by stupid french riots amonst other things. The EU may think we are close to a United States of Europe but personally and thankfully we are way off that.

The US dollar makes no sense, GWB spent my bankroll in Iraq, we wipe our arses on dollars over here, cheaper than loo roll, bit shiny though.

I have found a reasonable correlation between rake and game softness. It's not that the poor players seek out the high rake but that nits will avoid it.

Ironically, making every denominaton of your currency the same size and colour (and thus virtually identical in appearance at first glance) makes no sense to me.

but are tables where the players too dumb to figure out that they are paying almost double the rake worth paying that extra rake for in order to play those aforementioned dumb players?

I ponder that everyday. Nice for rakeback. Ever do the math of what the real cost is if you recieve 32% rakeback?
