Re: Hustled in home game last night?
Insurance isn't a hustle -- it's a gamble with bad odds. I don't play roulette when I go the casino, but I don't think it's a hustle that they have it available.
As for the rake, yeah, that seems shaky. The private clubs I've played iin all just has a time charge. Every half hour you had to put $4 or $5 on the table, the dealer collected, and that was it (dealers got tipped by players, just like in a casino, of course, but no rake).
That keeps it simple. But you know the rake does add up to ALOT of money, and at really low stakes really does make it hard to win.
