I was going to try to organize a game in the Bridge 7 Hearts card game room... I'm not into playing stuff like Caribbean stud, 3 card poker etc ...

Some people pay the worlds highest rake, and consider squeaking out 1 BB/hour at 4/8 a living.

You have to run the ala Dirty Rotten Scoundrels scam on the side to beat the rake.

So it sounds it's bad players and the rake is 10% max $15 on the 5/10!!!!

How would you adjust your game to account for the rake?

If it goes to showdown every hand.. I guess they must be taking nearly 100 BB/100 hands...

Is this rake beatable?
How can people earn a living playing on cruise ships???

Do they organize private games?
