The real rake decrese needs to happen at like 25nl/50nl/100nl where it makes the games hard to beat and thus keeps lesser players from every being able to move up to midstakes. I'm not saying the raises in HS rake are a good thing, but when you compare it at a bb/100 level even factoring in the drastically smaller edges at HS, its still not the biggest issue.

[krolewicz]

oh come on, everyone itt (?) paid that rake and moved up while profiting

[Roger Mainfield]

Micro stakes games were vastly softer back then.

[krolewicz]

I`m not sure than "then" for all of us is the same, anyway i have some friends that have grinded up from micro like 1y or 6 months ago and werent really complaining

not that I want to prove anything, but this rake talk seems like a good excuse for anything

[vancouverspecial]

The fact Stars or any poker site rakes $3 in the first place is laughable.
