So I'm pretty sure that you pay the same proportion of rake in the small pots, but the bigger pots you pay less.
For 50nl vs 100nl, yes*, but not necessarily if you're comparing 25nl to 50nl like he was.
9.6bb pot at 25nl: $2.40 pot - $0.12 rake = 5% rake
9.6bb pot at 50nl: $4.80 pot - $0.20 rake = 4.17% rake
10bb pot at 25nl: $2.50 pot - $0.12 rake = 4.8% rake
10bb pot at 50nl: $5.00 pot - $0.25 rake = 5.0% rake
So can be higher or lower, but will usually be lower at 50nl than 25nl (for pots that don't reach max rake).
* Edit: Actually, on average, rake will be lower for 50nl than 100nl for small pots, since the fractional rake not kicking in will have more of an impact at lowering rake below 5% at 50nl than at 100nl
