i played over 215k hands of 2/4 6max on FT last year and the avg rake per hand was 0.142$. i moved to stars this month and over 14.600 hands i've paid 0.117$/hand. so where is the difference coming from, is it because the games are tighter? is it just the small sample? the only difference in actual rake is for 5 player pots where PS rakes 2$ max while FT rakes 3$.
The games aren't very tight at stars... more like loose aggressive. 1 rake difference I know of is that stars takes $1 at $20, and $2 once the $19 left hits $40. FT takes $2 once the entire pot+rake hits $40. Basically means a pot needs to get to 11BB to be raked $2 on stars, but only 10BB on tilt.

Pokerstars is full of nits so less hands go to the flop?
