I wouldn't mind if it became 90% RB, leaving them with a profit and some $ for marketing.

[/ QUOTE ]They have money to market from their sportsbooking,its not like they are in need of charity and running a poker site

rake is charity? how come people didn't say that about party?

[/ QUOTE ]Your misquoting me,i never said rake is charity,you just took a word i used out of context and applied it fit your remark.(are you a polititian? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img])Iwas responding to the theory that they werent making any money to advertise because they charged no rake,and i pointed out that the POKER tables werent being run as a CHARITY to help us poor players play for free.It was done to promote their booking.It was a business move by them.

The people arguing that they should be charging rake are ridiculous. They make money from their sportsbook. There are tons of sites that have 50-90% rakeback, some with over 100% if you find the right deal. 100% rakeback with no strings attached or trouble finding a certain affiliate/prop manager is exactly what separates them from the other poker rooms. This should not change.

Give them some time. Once they have quality software I think their traffic will grow steadily. They have and will spend sportsbook profits to advertise the free poker room.
