Re: ******OFFICIAL STARS REGULARS THREAD******

From what I can tell, even for the loosest, most showdown bound amongst us, it is a giant rake increase in a game that already has incredibly high rake.

They did decrease the rake to 4.5%. I personally don't think that the changes will affect us very much.

They increased the rake cap though, which is way more important since the cap gets hit so often. Also every single regular will be losing rakeback percentage which is the same thing as increased rake! Also with no minimum rake, and loss of incremental rounding, I'm calculating rake increases (including rakeback loss) of 15-50pct depending on style.

Re: ******OFFICIAL STARS REGULARS THREAD******

As I see the cap remains almost the same, 0.5$ - 2 players, 1.5$ 3-4 players, 3$ > 5 players. The main difference right now that the maximum 3$ cap is starting from 6 players not 5. This will hurt ofv

Re: ******OFFICIAL STARS REGULARS THREAD******

Using "almost" when talking about 50pct increases in a game where 1bb every 100 hands is epic is probably a mistake...

Probably not. I've calculated that it is possible to be about the same, but you need to be playing 35-40 vpip 5 and 6 handed without 3betting much and going to showdown way more than any winning player ever has.

I could be wrong here of course, I wonder when the first VPP tables/calculators will be available so we could see the clear difference.
