This is a true story.
The online rake for heads up play is unbelievable. I tried playing $5/$10 heads up, and my opponent and I both made default buyins of $100. I got stuck, rebought twice, played on for about an hour (maybe an hour and a half, no more), and was down $150.
I looked at my opponents stack and added it up with mine. In less than an hour and a half, the rake had dropped so much that, if I went on to bust my opponent, I would not even break even !!! I sent the following email to our good friends at Full Tilt and Poker Stars: Dear Customer Service Person, A few days ago, I was playing an opponent in the $5/$10 Heads Up Limit Holdem Table. I had some misfortunes, and in short order was down $150. We hadn't been playing too long, certainly less than 90 minutes. I took a look at my opponent's chips (he had started with the $100 default buyin) and added them to mine. What I saw simply amazed me: IF I WENT ON TO COMPLETELY BUST MY OPPONENT, I WOULD STILL BE A LOSER IN THE GAME. HE WOULD BE BUSTED, AND I WOULD BE DOWN THIRTY TO FIFTY DOLLARS (or even more, if it took a while to bust him). I would like someone from upper level management to comment on the rake in this game (the $8/16 and $10/20 games are also gimped by the extreme rake). Please send a reply. Thank you very much. |

Re: This is a true story.
Bear and a rabbit were [censored] in the woods. The bear asked the rabbit do you have trouble with sh*t sticking to your fur, the rabbit said no... So the bear picked him up and wiped his @ss with him... TRUE STORY..

I have forwarded my confusion as an inquiry to FT support, and asked that someone in their upper management address these questions immediately: Why would a bear have sex with a rabbit? And why do bears need to wipe their asses after sex? |

Re: This is a true story.
rake for anything below 10/20 esp. sux.
ppl need to get lots of their rake back whether it be via propping, bonus/vip incentives or sites like wpex to soften the (rake) blow. |
