Default Re: Winning players actually get around 55% of the money.

This is sort of ridiculous. Don’t play poker because someone is collecting a rake and making money. Don’t go to sporting events because someone is selling tickets, jerseys programs and making money. Don’t go golfing because someone is making money selling balls, clubs and green fees. Better not buy and drive a car, or buy clothes or eat because somebody is making a dollar. Can’t have anyone making a dollar by charging fees. People have the freedom to do whatever they want with their entertainment money. If you don't like, than don't play/pay. Start your own rake free home game.

POKER RAKE IS A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR SOMETHING THAT ESSENTIALLY COST ABOUT NOTHING. THATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
POKER AND EVERYTHING ELSE.
