New Pokerroom Rate Structure?

[Uglyowl]

All about what the market will bear. As prices (rake) rises demand decreases. Depends on how much I guess.

not surprisingly, the clueless remain clueless. look at how many players still do party/skins limit where .50 is taken at $5.00. outrageous.

I think that the few players who play there need to boycott their site, and make it known to management.

these guys are PIGS this is the second rake increase in a year...

They used to have the best rake schedule for short LHE games..very bad move by them.. loyal knowlegable players will leave for good if they havent already.

I just deposited a G for the $200 bonus I'm going to study the rake schedule carefully and if they are pulling this crap in the $3-6 and $5-10 games..I'm gone for good. I never play there anyway..soft sucks so bad. So fuggin greedy..problem is they have tons of micro games where they make most of their profit and most players are unaware of the huge impact rake increase have on very low limit games. Some pencil pusher jammed this one down management's throat.

Glad I got the bonus done last week.

Figuring limit, 5 or more players rates from their stupid little chart:

.25/5: any flop 2.5c (figure they round up, anyone confirm?), 10c at $1, 25c at $3.

.5/1: any flop 5c, 20c at $2, 50c at $6.

1/2: any flop 10c, 40c at $4, $1 at $12.

2/4: any flop 20c, 80c at $8, $2 at $24.

3/6: any flop 30c, $1.20 at $12, $3 at $30

5/10: any flop 50c, $2 at $20, $3 at $60

10/20: any flop 50c, $2 at $40, $3 at $120.

25/50: any flop 50c, $2 at $100, $3 at $300.

Continued along that vein; I don't remember how high PR spreads.

So for 10/20 and up this is probably pretty good. Absolutely awful below that, though.

Note that they also dropped their max rake cap from 6 players or more to 5 or more.

Edit: actually they dropped each level down one. The levels were previously 2-3, 4-5, and 6-10; now they're HU, 3-4, and 5-10.

those numbers are ridiculously high. Very few players can be long term winners paying 10% rake on every pot. I just hope other sites won't make the same changes!

With these new rake changes the lower limit games at Pokerroom are unbeatable in the long run. Those are the unpleasent facts of the situation.

Can you show me the average rake per hand before and after the change, and convert that to BB/100?
