I love how whenever someone makes a post like this complaining about high rake they are automatically a loser who deserves ridicule. I personally believe that the rake at most major sites could be cut by 30% or so without any major loss in revenue for the site.

PartyGaming had $212.5 mil total revenue for the first six months of this year.
$140.5mil of that was from poker. 75% of that is from ring games. $140.5*0.75 = $105.4mil
By cutting rake 30% they lose $31.6mil
So I guess if you think losing about 15% of their total revenue and 22% of poker revenue isn't a major loss in revenue then yes, you're right.
