This has been my experience in some other games at casinos where the rake is high (usually the lower stakes, often there are 2 stakes, like 3/6 and 6/12 that have the same $ in rake!). I don't like sitting at games with friends because typically there is only room for 1 or 2 people to make a profit unless the suckers go broke a lot and either rebuy or get up and let another sit down. So much money leaves the table that in order for me to profit each loser at the table has to lose a LOT.
