Don't want to sound like a broken record but the rake at Stars is silly.

Well at least you got 1 vpp for that amount of rake. I think stars is lame too, they should offer a lower rake level at the micro tables, and make it possible to earn 0,25 points at least. A bit like ultimate bet would be nice.
