Are Full Tilt heads up limit cash games beatable without rakeback??
 
I've played a couple thousand hands of $2/$4 heads up, and while the games seem pretty soft, the rake also seems really high. Are these games even worth playing??

Yes, definitely, if 50-100 can be beat, so can 2-4, lol.

well you see that's not really the case, because the rake takes up less % of the total $ won at 50/100 obviously. at 2/4 the rake definitely bites into the winrate.

think before you post

I apologize for the mispost, I meant .50-1.00 aka 100NL and I assure you I was thinking, albeit drunk.

I woudlnt even bother playing anything below 5/10 the rake is almost unbeatable and very marginally if it is.

I didn't even realize this was limit, my posts were in regards to NL.

At the lower stakes, it's very hard. The middle stakes are even worse because you start to see a lot more talented players.

Just by pure guess, I'd say that $5/$10 on up is where you can start beating the rake for a significant amount obv assuming you can beat that game.

Wouldn't the fact that you only won 35 and paid out 200 mean that it is next to impossible to beat the rake?

Online sites have the best racket going.
