Are Full Tilt heads up limit cash games beatable without rakeback??

[skiier04]

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.

[ElPhoenix]

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.

In 2k hands my total prfoit is only like $35 and I've payed about $200 in rake.

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.

[Bubble Bully]

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.
