Default Re: Rake at PAris Casino is $6, Is it the same to other Harrah\'s casin

California is unusual in that, by law, the rake cannot vary with the pot size. In Nevada (and most other jurisdictions) rake is taken as a percentage of the pot, up to a cap amount. At Paris, this cap is apparently $5, which is high; most casinos in the market have a $4 cap for raked games. Additionally, Paris takes a $1 jackpot drop, which is not a true rake, as all dollars taken into the jackpot must be returned to players as payouts.

In the example you describe with two players heads-up, the full $5 would not be raked unless they got the pot size got to $50.
