There's always an outrage whenever bitcoin spikes.
If not the rake, complain about loss of chat when you were never talking about poker anyways.
If not chat, complain about lack of traffic. Well that's your job if your such a fan of the site. It clearly occupies a majority of your daily headspace.
If traffic is good complain about krill tough to earn. When krill 3X as it is now, find something about the tournament schedule to complain about. The buy ins are either too low or too high or it's at the wrong time.
Bitcoin was 4k in march now it's 40k. You think you'd be in love with this site, but my theory is you have no bankroll mgmt.
With regards to the rake, it's the lowest on the net.
Up to 10/20 it's 4% with a 25 chip cap ($1USD now, but this is irrelevant) because over 90% of pots at those stakes do not hit the cap of 625 chips.
Stars rake is 5% at those stakes and seals is 3% after modest rakeback for a net rakeback of 40% compared to stars.
Therefore seals has a lower rake than stars for well over 90% of pots.
So you are wrong about the rake.
Lol this is the worst line of thinking I've heard in a while. Basically your saying because bitcoin went up we should be fine with the rake. ???? Seals did not cause bitcoin to go up, they should adjust to it.
At the stakes I play, about 50/100, it is 3.6% with a 120 chip cap, 4$. At these stakes on ACR, it is 5% with a 3$ cap + 30% rakeback.
Now having about the same net rake as ACR is good, but SWC's whole premise is low rake. There are NO welcome bonuses on SWC, NO rewards for grinding (like ACR Beast etc.), NO support for HUDs and external tracking.
So why should a site lacking all these features, and volume, also charge the same amount of rake as the vastly superior one?\
Edit: superior in terms of features, not superior premise.
