Sorry, I don't know how to make this format properly but it reads left to right percentage, 2 player rake 3+ player rake, 5+ player rake.

The heads up rake and 3 handed rake is pretty ridiculous but 5+ players seems cool. That heads up rake is gonna make it so no one wants to play heads up tho. I guess this site doesn't want new tables getting started. I was thinking of checking this place out but no RB and ridic rake for table starters which I am since waiting lists can take forever. Heads up is the greatest game ever too and your site is icky when it comes to the rake.

TELL EM I USED THE WORD ICKY!

Icky like getting VD.....

I'm not butthurt at all. Quite the contrary, it seems to me that it is the "rake is too high" crowd that is butthurt. I have no problem with thread-bumping, it's just comical to me to bump a thread that's only twenty minutes old. Now THAT's an example of somebody who is butthurt!

For the record, I'm all for lowering the rake.

No, I don't want higher rake. I think that it is high enough as it is. I will sign a petition if the Hysterical Rake is Too High Committee (H.R.T.H.C.) produces one for me to sign to lower the rake.

I dabble in ring games once in while, but I'm sure I'll never escape the nanostakes. I mostly play microstakes MTT and STT. I'm just having fun with my free $2. I'm up to $48! Not a bad R.O.I, right?

Have fun.

In terms of ROI turning $2 into $48 isn't half bad. Not saying that $48 is lot of money (even though it's 5% of my net worth).

I think everyone here can agree we all want to see people take the $2 and run it up into a decent bankroll and then take down some major tournament. Make that $48 into $4800, that is what I say.

idk what all of you think my sn is ha. I play, maybe not a lot, but I'd say 95% of my volume is PLO. Full time job and high rake so maybe don't get in as much volume as some of you crushers. Still at 100k+ hands on this site so I wouldn't say I barely play. Rake is still high btw Global not sure if you were aware.

Serious question, is the rake you posted here even listed on your site anywhere? I have not been able to find it anywhere where I think it would be. Please tell me you are hiding your rake still.

yes, they MUST post their rake somewhere public (on their website), obv.

I could be wrong (and usually am), but I'm starting to think that Smitty might be thinking that Global's rake is too high. Like I said, I could be wrong...
