Default Re: Pokerstars - 6max players get shafted when it comes to FPPs

The only reason it looks different is because you're basing it on MGR. That's why it looks like Full Tilt players get hosed playing six max with bonus and rakeback.

You play a $50 pot at full ring and one at six max, the rake is going to be the same but the MGR of the players is not. It's much more reasonable to look at it as a percentage of the rake taken off the table rather than rake taken divided by players.

If you look at it that way the same pots are going to get the same rake and the same points. The people who get screwed are the ones who play the most pots that get raked but don't get a point, those in the 100-200 NL games.
