Re: Question: Why does everyone get so upset about \'The Juice\' In tourney?
the more the rakeoff the less amount is returned to the players. as that rakeoff dissapears from the total pool of players and new players money, the games and tournaments must suffer. suffer from less entrants. less poor players entering. and less total money left to be won by the field of poker players in general.
it has happened a few times in the past where the games got very tough and smaller. but when poker expanded in california the money got a boost. then the internet and tv shot it up again. expect to see the downturn in money someday in the future. with it the marginal players that havent improved their game going broke.
