Hi guys

I've been finding some difference between the rake that PokerStars have calculated for their point system and the statistic Rake Contributed in PokerTracker 4 (1-1.5% higher on PT4).

It's strange because I thought the Weighted Contributed Rake method is more or less universal nowadays. There is 0 discrepancy from PT4 and Partypoker for example.
Does anybody know what exactly is going on here?

I think you are using the wrong stat.

No it turns out that when playing vs players from Germany you have the German rake written to the HH (which is higher due to regulations etc). At the same time you get the points based on the rake of your location.
E.g. German player wins and pays higher cap at $3. Your rake contribution is $1.5 from the HH into PT4. However in you location/legislation it's $2.5 cap. So PokerStars gives you points for $1.25 (125 I believe).
