Reading this thread has prevented me from depositing on wpn. The rake is ridiculous.

Looked at this thread a bit and didn't see a direct answer so I thought posting here may help.
How bad is the rake for nanostakes? I'm talking about $.01/.02-$.05/.10

MicroDonky1, .01/.02-.02/.05 aren't Beast/BBJ tables so rake is probably comparable to most sites at those limits.

.05/.10 non Beast/BBJ tables run also so same thing but you can play Beast/BBJ tables at that stake where the rake is terribad.

But I have sat at the BBJ tables thinking I am due lol, and I agree the rake was tremendously high and something should be done so....

I'm another who hasn't played since BF. I have recently been trying to decide on a network. I had my mind made up. I was going with Winning... until this thread.

I hope everyone who signed this is not playing those tables. That is the only truly effective protest.

Haven't played cash since January solely because of the rake. It was fine on Merge before the move.

for their own benefit as well...i feel like an idiot after trying to make a run at the beast. read through this thread and stay away!
didn't make even half of what i normally have through that many hands on other sites, and that's after beast payout (1k) and rakeback....plus i was running hot, like super hot for the first 60k hands.

Gonna be tough for this to happen when Revolution is trying to lose all their customers.

To clarify, I played a BBJ 10NL table because it was basically all that was running, and when the SB limped and I checked my BB, we saw a flop and fought over a $.09 pot. Ridiculous.

When I'm in the BB and that happens I raise every time just because I can. I'm not sure if that is more -EV than checking.

The short answer is, it's possible to be profitable, but not enough to be worth bothering. I had a ~7BB/100 win rate at the 10NL tables that aren't BBJ, and ~2 at the BBJ tables before I realized how ****ty the rake was.
