Goosfraaba,

That was what was being said about it 2 years ago. Fish don't care about the rake.

EXACTAMUNDO!!!

Which is why all this babble about changing from dealt rakeback to contributed rakeback in order to bring in more players or make the games looser is the purest nonsense.

It's not really about the psychological effect of the rake but the simple question of where the money goes. More money to loose players and less to nits, will be good for long term state of the game. The effect may not be large but the negatives are smaller or non existent (bots take a pay cut?).

Also, don't discount the compounding effect of a small change over time to create a tipping point (such as a strong, self promoting player base).
