You seem a bit delusional about the variance, and 2.86% rake is not "enormous" nor is 0.72 cents a huge difference. Try looking at the other sng games where you can get rake jumps of 2 percent or more :-)
it is enormous considering how long these hypers last...i don't agree with you. and obv delusional about variance, haha
let's look at it like that. If $3.5 rake would be same as $7, then playing 2k games, with .72% rake difference. So let's say I have a 3% roi. So basically Stars is robbing me 3.5*2000*12*0.0072=$604.8=172.8BI/year. That's about 24% of my overall roi which is enormous in my book
