I'd expect more of an in depth analysis from a high stakes winning player such as yourself.
But this may be the issue, that high stakes players sometimes can't see the wood for the trees.
As a previous poster said, a similar "strike" was tried by Pokerstars players a few years ago. It had no chance of working which was obvious from the start.
This strike has some chance of working, but only if GG raised the rake just to test the waters. If they did it to get rid of pro crushers then the strike won't work because that's what they want anyway.
To earlier posters' points:
They won't keep raising rake infinite but they will raise it as high as recs and whales will stand.
It doesn't matter that there are some big losing pros on high stakes on GG, it is the net across all of the pros that GG are interested in. Obviously some pros will still lose because of variance or playing badly, but collectively the pros are taking a big chunk of the recs' and whales' money.
