NLTRN: Softness vs. Fees
If the softness of sites ranges from 1-10 (10 being softest) and a site with 5% fees is 6, how soft would a site with 10% fees have to be (all else being equal) in order to be equally profitable?

Re: NLTRN: Softness vs. Fees
I was kind of thinking 8,5 or something. Is that a bad estimate?

I don't think there's a site tough enough that charges 5% at any low or medium level that is worse than a very soft site charging 10%.
I guess Party is that soft 10% site.

Re: NLTRN: Softness vs. Fees
11+
Just do the math. The rake difference between 5% and 10% is horrible. For example: standard 60% winner at site with 10% rake will have to play by almost 50% more games (e.x. 150 games) than his 60% counterpart playing at site with 5% rake (e.x. 100 games)to make the same profit. You must be really big winner at soft site to make up for that and the question is if it is sustainable.

Re: NLTRN: Softness vs. Fees
At those levels I don't see how a 55% winner turns into a 65$ winner or w/e it takes to makeup the difference in rake. If I'm a 66% winner at the 11s on say PartyPoker, I doubt I'm going to be much lower on PokerStars, FTP or Bodog if at all.

Ok, I will stay away from 10% fees. Thanks.
