How can we identify which tables have a max rake cap of 3 Euros? I don't understand why is it not capped at 3 Euros across all tables? I think you guys really need to look into this... 5 euro capped is terrible for NL/PL games but its absolutely unbeatable for Limit games.
Your right it is absolutely ridiculous and one of the major things that keep Everleaf from growing.
Many of us have asked Everleaf to look at their Rake and make adjustments on the Euro tables. Unfortunately, they have remained consistent with their reply and it is basically that you do not have to play the Euro tables. While this is true that we do not have to play the Euro Tables, the fact is that 80%+ of the tables are on Euro tables which leaves us to either play the Euro tables, or to not play our normal volume.
This is one of the major reasons that I play on multiple Networks. If Everleaf were to change the Rake on Euro tables to cap it at 3, I would put most(if not all) of my volume on Everleaf. I also think that in the long run Everleaf would make more money because the site would grow tremendously. Now would be the time to make these changes and to make a major announcement about it. With the US market looking for a new site a lot of the players who know that the rake is capped at 5 Euros refuse to play on Everleaf.
Unfortunately as I said above, Everleaf has been consistent in saying that we don't have to play these tables. I don't see them making these changes at this time. If more people start to bring this to Everleaf's attention, it can only help though.
One last thing: why do the Euro players play on the Euro tables? Now that the Networks are combined shouldn't they have access to USD tables and therefore be able to play the lower raked tables? I don't understand it and I know some of them are probably just not aware of the Rake, but 80%+ of the tables are Euro tables and it's hard for me to believe that many of the players are unaware.
