Yes, true.
However, the most important thing to 'regulars' is how many recs/fish are on the site, and recs/fish don't really know about Rake.
IMO, most of the hard work is to be done to attract recs. Better players will already be there bcoz of Poker community hype.
so they need:
1. big marketing campaign - could easily get **** tonnes of people to sign up quick by asking some popular hearthstone/Dota/whatever other esports game streamers to play some games in between their sessions
2. easy user interface with simple game selection and pretty tables
3. limit amount of game types to begin with, esp in MTT and SnG. Much better to have just 6/9max turbos at various stakes than 6/9max turbo/hyper/slow/KO and not have games running regularly.
4. easy deposit/good bonus (offer a good deposit bonus with bigger workthru)
Those things should attract recreational players, once recs are there then regs will soon come.
