They also keep the game moving faster, especially in certain games.

This has never been my experience. Seems to me time pots kill action cause no one wants to risk their chips just to pay the rake, so everyone plays tighter than virgins until the time gets paid.

Then again, this was at a $1/$2 10 handed game with a $5/ half hour time charge, split between the first 2 pots over $100. $25 is a huge chunk out of a $100 pot. They probably work better at higher stakes.

What the hell? Who puts a time pot in a $1/2 game? That is beyond stupid.

NYC clubs charge time instead of a rake for their 1/2 games.
