Default Re: Beating the Rake @ PLO100 ?

rakeback is one reason, if you actually can see how big the relative rake is on these levels, that many ignore more or less, struggling for best possible bonuses/rakeback is easier. its also shows that struggling to higher limits (maybe trying to build bankroll instead of making small withdrawals often etc.) have HUGE benefits because of the big decreasment in relative rake you pay.

many players "know" it more or less but think "ah, I have 27% RB so its ok". but having 27% RB is not much at all sinse the site keeps 73%.

this is actully something I have thought much about and I think 99.9% of the players on these levels doesnt know/understand how big the rake effect is on the winrate etc. I have thought of writing a long post or article or something about this in general some day.
