Default Re: Casino w/ the Worst Hourly Rake?

When is the last time you played at Motor City? They've been taking 10% up to $6 since about 12-27-06. The $2-5nl takes $7/half hour and the $5-10 and $10-20nl games take $8/half.

I last played around September/Oct of 2006...I don't remember a $5/10NL ...how is it there these days?

Right, we have 30min rakes (not hourly) as well...but I'm saying that the "hourly" total rake comes out to be $12 ($1-2 NLHE) and $16 ($5-10 NLHE).

Still, it sucks ass, because they have a monopoly on the poker business here and we have no choice like in Vegas, CA, or Atlantic City, etc.

Canada?

[/ QUOTE ]

True, Canada offers some ok games, but it's a whole other hassel to have to bring your passport/birth certificate info to cross the border, then change US for Canadian dollars, get a hotel, etc. to make that trip profitable...Detroit is still more convenient and efficient overall.

Casino Windsor, right across the river from the Detroit casinos pretty much copies their setup.

Last time I went it was $6(CN)/half, but I've heard on this site that since late last year they've changed it to a rake similar to the the Motorcity/Greektown.

I didn't play at Niagara when I was there, but I seem to remember somebody saying that it was worse there than in Windsor....

Bay 101 (San Jose, CA) charges $13/half hour in the 100/200 limit game.

Nope, it's $12/hh. Same as Commerce.

Casino Barcelona has some ridiculous rake in their 20/40€ game. 10% of pot with a ludicrously high cap. I just remember seeing multiple 5€ chips get dropped down the slot in one hand [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
