Hollywood Park added them ,and from what I understand the rake is the same as the live dealer tables(great idea guys [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img])

To top it off Hollywood Park's drop ($4 + $1) on the small 1/2 blind NL games (the only NL game that seems to go at the eTable) is the highest in town. Out of morbid curiosity I've directly witnessed three pots where everything was dropped (e.g., one limper, SB folds, no further called action). The way it's done is absolutely comic.

If you are curious as to why I would play in such a game I had already cashed out in a bigger 5/10 or 3/5 blind NL game in the main room and was actually hoping for a tight game so I'd perhaps end up in the BB in a one limper pot so I could plagiarize this story.

As an aside, did play the eTable a few times when the game was good and had some nice cashes. I enjoyed the speed and feel of the game and think it has a chance done right.
