What Are Good Games For Rakeback

I've tried all types of games from FR to HU, SNGs, MTTs, cash, limit, NL, PL, all varieties of stud, etc. What I find is I'm basically a break even poker player. I'm working to improve that. But which specific form of poker gives you the most rakeback? I suspect it might be HU cash games, but I really do not know. The deal I currently have is through RPM in which it is a contributed rakeback.

Thanks

Any game where you pay a lot of rake I guess. Try PLO or LHE.

You can make a buy in per 1000 hands from rakeback playing micro stakes HUNL

You get the most rakeback from the most heavily raked games.

Do you really want to pay an extra $100 in rake because you'll get 35% of it back ?

Rakeback isn't free money from nowhere.

Re: What Are Good Games For Rakeback

Doesn't good rakeback mean bad rake?

Can you have one without the other?

Re: What Are Good Games For Rakeback

You can make decent $ being a rakeback grinder in LHE. However you need to evaluate which will provide the best $ / hour, if you win more at one game than you make in winnings plus rakeback at another then rakeback becomes irrelevant.
