Default Re: WSEX: Official Monthly Thread: May. (#9 of 9.)

What Poker Tracker will show you is the rake you paid out of the pots YOU won. Not what you would have gotten by playing 8% VIP sharing in the rake from pots won by others.

I will never understand why any site doesn't rebate the rakeback by returning the rake YOU actually paid.

I am still very cool to WPEX for this reason.

I am certain they would find more success by doing the rake return properly.

You were advocating a rake of 5.75% in your poker initiative yet you find the distribution of rakeback objectionable at a 100% rakeback site?

WPX seeds the games with money. The aces promo, tournament overlays and freerolls pump thousands of dollars into the poker economy every week. The generosity of WPX/WSEX is unprecedented.

Many reader here were predisposed to like you, Tuff_Fish, but your reasoning is getting to be be extraordinarily skewed and it is becoming a strain for reasonable readers here to offer your ideas any support.

You're quarreling over the distribution of pennies each hand while eagerly drawing up plans which would have you handing away dollars.

There is no better place for the recreational player to play than World Poker Exchange. Their structure is significantly better than that which you're outlined with your California Poker Initiative.

Having a competing concept doesn't mean you have license to invent wild exaggerations and mindless criticisms of a better product.
