Effect of the rake

[redsimon]

.......or play on Stars where they cap the rake at $1?

Max rake on 'Stars is $3

or do you mean heads up rake? Thats $1

[redsimon]

how so?

Play $2-$4 instead of £1-£2

Apart from the fact that Crypto don't have 2-4......

Are you sure? Just been playing it on Interpoker which is a Crypto skin

Did I say $1  

Meant $2, and that's on the 6-max tables.

Still $3 on the full rings, although I believe it's affected by how many players are dealt in.

double if you are playing the same quailty of players at $2/$4 as you are at £1/£2 then you would save yourself alot of money

your winnings would remain at £3000 but you would save yourself about £600 in rake as your rake would be cappped at $1800 instead of £1800 thus meaning your ratio of win to rake would be affect greatly in your favour

lol I like the new name.

Unfortunately it doesn't work that way because a large % of pots don't break the rake ceiling i.e. pot 30 gets raked by the same % in both currencies.  Although 2/4 being a slightly larger game would have more pots breaking the ceiling.  I do agree though that it would be preferable to play the same players at an equivalent $ game, but that doesn't happen.

It's still a good idea to lower the rake ceiling from $5 to $3, you will save a huge amount.

And you wouldnt notice a diffrence in standard.

Excellent point, concise and true,Its Stars cash that offers the best value.

Yes they have 2-4 limit but NL goes from 1-2 to 2-5.

ps I wouldn't let it be widely known that you are playing 2-4 limit as many less sophisticated types would consider that a bit of a ladies game and not part of the natural progression to £150 -£300
