I think your formula is flawed. I believe a better way to calculate how much the rake affects your winrate is this:
1. Filter all hands at BCP for 1 stake (e.g. Stake = 100nl) (include all hands, even the ones with no flop)
2. Find total hands played, total rake payed, average # players dealt into hand
Rake You Paid =
(Total Rake Payed) divided by (Average # Players Dealt Into Hand)
Rake You Paid (BB) =
(Rake You Paid) divided by (BB of your Stake)
Rake You Paid (BB/100)
[Rake You Paid (BB)] divided by (Total Hands Played / 100)
For me:
Stake: 100nl
Total Rake Payed: $2794.80
Average # Players: 5.12
Total Hands: 30,841
Rake I Paid (BB/100) = 1.77 BB/100
To make it even easier, you can filter for where exactly 6 people were dealt into the hand, so you don't have to use Average # Players. You can do the same for 5 people, 4 people, etc. But it should give you a fairly accurate picture of how the rake is affecting your winrate. Plus, your Rake Paid (BB/100) should be lower if you have a good Rakeback deal.
