150 Rake question

[Ray_bob]

is it possible to beat a 150$ tourney when 12% is raked out of it. also if you give a 10% tip to the dealer when you win.


if it makes any difference its a 6max game top 2 pay 1st 500 2nd 300

This is a 6-player SNG in a casino?

12% is actually a pretty low rake for B&M SNGs at this level. But most B&M SNGs have a terrible structure. So obviously more information would be needed to determine if it was beatable.

It is not inherently unbeatable just due to the rake...but you are also tipping a pretty hefty % on a pretty small return on your investment from cashing.

blinds go up every 12 min

blind structure:

100-100
100-200
200-400
300-600
400-800
500-1000
1000-2000
1500-3000
