It would be nice if RPMJon or RPMSeth added a comment to the main thread, LHE Rake Revolution vs Merge.

I would hate to think my skin is against me in getting an adjustment to the LHE rake. Ant.. is pushing hard on this issue, carbon is committed to a change, Hero has added there support and as helped the mircro limit players. RPM should add there thoughts also and go to merge for relief.

Sad that Seth and Jon just continue to remain silent. I suppose it is because their bosses do not want them to comment so i wont take it out on them personally, but i would have hoped for more from a company (RPM) that is so good on so many other fronts.

I have had several of my posts deleted here for talking about the LHE rake

I can't speak for RPM, but, not all sites are on board for the LHE rake changes. I have no personal knowledge of RPM's position on the matter unfortunately.

Silence is meaningful, and to the other sites, short term vision can really hurt. Limit is certainly at most a small part of the revenue, might even be really tiny part so reducing it by 30% would not be much change. I realize we get a good rakeback and in fact I get a very good % back, without it I could not continue to play, but not all players are as fortunate and the weak players are busted very fast.

Well we now have three skins who have come out in support of this change:

Carbon
Black Chip
Hero

See the main thread for more details.

RPM still has not weighed in. One can only assume that they do not support our cause at this point.

Agreed, next month or two promotions will be telling, this month is not worth it. I rake over 12K per year, I'm willing to switch if needed, if hero is willing to support LHE then a move may be needed. If I have to grind at 20% rakeback for a few months then I will .. I like rpm, I profit at rpm but if other skins will promote my favorite game, then I have to support them with my cash.

I know you read these threads seth and jon .. decide as you must. If your willing to accept a rake change in LHE then speak out as silence will only let me conclude that your against and I must move on.

Seth, Jon:

I love the support I get at RPM. I have been giving you guys the benefit of the doubt and assumed that Merge didn't want their skins commenting, but now we are at a point where all of the other skins are starting to not only comment, but state their support for this change.

Please comment in the main thread. Please show your support for our position. The last thing I want to see occur is a backlash against RPM, but that is starting to happen.

All of the comments have been passed along to Merge Gaming. If you have further suggestions regarding improvements that can be made, we encourage you to post in the Suggestion Box thread.

Seth,

What we are asking for is where RPM as a skin on the Merge network stands on this issue. Other skins have stated their position which means to us that RPM is also entitled.

I am an RPM fanboy, please don't let me down

Your kind words for RPM Poker are appreciated.

This particular forum is here to offer enhanced customer support to the poker community on 2+2. The suggestion box thread in this forum is here precisely so your feedback - positive or negative - can be recorded and passed on to the Merge Network for consideration and implementation as they see fit.

We are always here to help, and that means we're more than happy to continue to represent the interests of RPM Poker members with any and all inquiries related to their accounts.

We are getting responses that are non-responses, it is a simple question, LHE on merge the rake is much higher than stars, slightly higher than cake, and somewhat higher than the other sites available to world players. Does RPM support reducing the rake structure of LHE. Carbon, Blackchip and Hero say yes, RPM says ?.

I think we can see why this has hit a roadblock

Their silence says a lot. Very disappointing.

Yah. I am disappointed in your responses Seth. Very much so.

The word coming from the Carbon reps is that the proposed LHE rake changes have been accepted by Merge and final details should be released shortly.

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

Nice. Good to see that Merge was receptive to this idea.

No thanks to Seth... guy sounds like a politician answering questions.

That is so cool.
You and dmyers1166 have done a lot to make this happen.
Kudos to you both.

Thanks, but all I did was bitch a lot It seems the guys at Carbon really went to bat for this and they are the ones who deserve the credit.

I just followed and posted, and I have a huge vested interest. Carbon and Khan, not sure his level of affiliation with carbon, made it happen, when it does happen. Thanks Ant for all the complaining and keeping it up.

Maybe a few weaker players can have a few more hands and we can suck some of the NL players over to the game.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait... you mean they're actually doing something about this?

Even though this is an RPM forum thread, I would love to say that if the proposed changes go through like has been discussed then I am very proud of BlackChip, Carbon and, and Hero poker, which are 3 skins on the Merge Network that seem to care about poker players!

RPM Poker has been in contact with Merge to make sure that all of the feedback with regard to the LHE structure has been seen for consideration. We are told that if changes will be made, all brands will be made aware of these changes simultaneously. At present, we have no other information.

In the event we receive more information about any changes, we'll be sure to post it.

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seth and Jon you should be commenting at this point and making a similar announcement. Time to start marketing to breath some life into the games.
