The rake in the Zynga tournaments is like 20%, you're better off just playing the cash games.

I do not know much about the Spanish language; however, if there is a group of male and female people and it's "correct" to use the male name, then that would be problematic.

I disagree. If people are saying "I cashed in the 90-man tournament online" that can turn off female poker players from playing in those games.

This has been something troubling that I recently discovered... let's take the $1,000,000 sit n gos payout structure for example:
1st - $4,000,000
2nd - $2,000,000
3rd - $1,500,000
Total - $7,500,000
Total buyins - $9,000,000
Total rake $1,500,000 (17%)

This seems really bad... the worst part of this, is that the buyin for their tournaments do not define what the rake is. I would suggest Zynga make these tournaments be $833,334 + $166,666 so that the rake is clearly defined.

I agree.

Hello fidstar,

Perhaps some day I will look into it more, learn more about the issue and protest it; however, there is only so much I can do in the present time.

OB have you considered posting about this in the Spanish forum to elucidate the disparities?

I did not know there was a Spanish forum... perhaps I should introduce myself and see if I can learn more about this issue. I would love to learn more from somebody who speaks Spanish as a primary language.

You may have problems entering the country as you might have to complete a form that asks if you are male or female.
