I for one am all for contributed rakeback. I know that it will help the players who play more hands and win more pots the most. That's what I'm hoping for. whether they know why or not they will perform better at WSEX, and put their money there. Dealt hand rakeback favors those of us who read this forum in the short run, but we have to look at where our poker income really comes from. It's not coming from each other. It's coming from the fun-loving gamblers out there. The same ones that Fred wants to attract because they will bet at his casino and sports book. Please look at it this way and encourage WSEX in making this change.

This is so wrongheaded.

1) Bad players, the ones a cardroom needs to survive, simply don't *think* about the difference in contributed versus dealt rakeback.

2) Bad players don't know that they're bad. They think they're good! If they hear about a change that favors "bad" players, they won't think that it will benefit them, because they are GOOD PLAYERS! Get it?
