Is medium stakes poker even beatable with a rake.

Depends what your deffinition of standard rake is. At local casinos near me the standard rake for a $1-2 NL game is $6 per half hour, plus they take out $1 per pot for the bad beat jackpot. This game is not beatable. Even a winrate of 8PTBB/100 is not enough to break even after the dealer tips.

Now online games with lower rake, add in Rakeback and ocasional bonuses and yes it is very beatable. Add in multiple tables and you can make enough to live off of easy at the $200NL level.
