Default Am I thinking straight?

If site A rakes an average of 3% at the limit I play and site B rakes an average of 4% at the same limit but I have a 25% rakeback deal at B, would my net rake paid be the same at both sites if I played an equal number of hands on both?

Exactly! Bonuses and rakeback are not included in the calculation.

Right, but you are much better of on Site A (3% rake) because:

a) you get your lower rake direct without any hassle of getting rake back payments
b) players you play against, majority of whom don't have any rake back deals, will last longer and lose more money to you rather than to the rake.

The greed award goes to Pokerroom, $.80 rake for $8-$23 pot, then $2 rake for higher. They chimed in at 5.23% tonight.

I think they have pretty low rake. Shitty software and limited game selection though. Pretty good for NL.

At first glance it seems the short handed games have one of the best rake structures around.

For $2/$4 full ring, they are advertised the same as Absolute (although someone said that Absolute's $2/$4 table is slightly off).

pokerroom also rakes the smaller pots at 2-4 .20 for $4.00-$6.00 pots which does not seemed to be mentiond in this and other posts.
