Re: Los Angeles Poker rake for Limit Hold-em
The games at Commerce have a brutal rake also, I don't play limit but the no limit games are a joke.
The $400 max 5-10 NL has a $5 dollar rake and $1 jackpot. It doesn't matter what the size of the pot is, they take $1 preflop, $5 on the flop and $6 if there is a turn. Even if the blinds check it down the whole way ($20 dollar pot) they take $6 out.
The 10-20 NL is a time game, but they take $10 every half hour. Thats $20 bucks an hour just to play, plus tips.
The no limit games are stil beatable because the action is so crazy, but I don't think I can ever get used to a rake like that.
