Re: Rake increase in Ladbrokes cash games
Hmm..I don't play cash games there (ther RB sucks compared to Prima/iPoker etc) but do keep $1000 or so in at the moment as a safer harbor than NT and for the occasional MTT.
I think I might have to withdraw it on principle now though.
I emiailed their support about this 3 days ago seeking confirmation and they haven't given me the courtesy of a response (and it's well hidden on their website of course - I couldn't find it at all).
Now labrokes are a huge name in UK gaming. It might be worth a heads-up to some UK poker magazines - assuming of course that Labrokes don't just buy off the journalists with advertising $$$
To sneakily increase the house's take by 20% and out of line with all the other rooms is very very greedy - a bit of outrage is worth it here to try to deter others from following suit - after all it won't take long before the extra 20% rake has cost Labrokes customers more than the Superuser account ever did the players over at Absolute..
