Harrahs in New Orleans, strange rake method.
I'm in the process in moving to Florida and on the way I stopped at Harrahs, in New Orleans. They did not rake the blind, but instead they took 6$ (at a 2-5 NL) from every player at dealer changes. Now I've only played in Southern Cal and vegas but Ive never seen this before. Any advantages or disadvantages to this?

Re: Harrahs in New Orleans, strange rake method.
Search for time charge or time rake. There's a lot of posts about it. At 2/5 I don't think it's detrimental. You will never convince me that HNO didn't implement this policy because the 1/2 NL games weren't bringing in enough full rake pots. Time charge really cuts into stacks in a 1/2 200 game.

Note, raking the blind is specific to California; most rakes are a fixed percentage of the pot up to a cap amount, 10% to $4 being most common in Las Vegas and Atlantic City. |
