Rake % ?

whats the std rake on a 25c 50c online cash table?

Its normally about 5% of the pot. The sit your playing on should have a rake schedule up. If not check other sites on the same network

Cheers Ciaran

thought it was about 5% alright but thought it was a bit on the steep side.

Wow, never realised there was that much of a difference between sites. Pacific:eek:, they should introduce a 'tip the dealer' button.

I think that the difference is exaggerated by the graph as it only starts at
2.6, but yeah that pacific rate is pretty big.

Is the graph not a bit misleading since the % of flops seen is quite different? Most sites operate a no flop no drop policy, so Ipoker's rake looks low due to the low number of flops seen.

Similarly, pacific had the highest number of flops seen.

Yeah this graph looks a bit off in thinking. It seems like someone just got a 5-8k sample from a DB from each of these sites and compared rake in BB/100. This is obv incorrect cos it does not show at any stage what % of the pot that the site is taking. I'd prefer to play at Pacific for example given these graphs if all the rake % was the same cos you're averaging 40% players to flop:eek::eek::eek:!!!!

Obv sites with higher players to flop are going to have higher rakes. This is all this graph seems to show. Maybe I'm wrong though.

Oh and there is a difference in rake % between a 25c-50c game and a 10/20 game. This graph does not show stuff like that either.

It was a strange choice to only do sampling and not include the rake schedule. Looking at the schedule on the Pacific site they have a cap of $4 and I didn't see any mention of only raking when there's a flop. I can't imagine that they'd actually rake an unflopped hand, but obviously the $4 and higher amount of flops seen would account for the increase anyway.

I linked to that page because the OP asked specifically about those stakes.

The same guy has stats and graphs on other stakes too, if you'd clicked on the rake comparison heading on his website.

And i'm sure they are all just as misleading as the stakes above.
You can't compare things like that is the sample has varibles that are out, such as players to a flop, num of flops etc

Edit
I also wouldn't take his graphs as gospil either
http://www.marketrake.com/2-4%20FLHE%20SH%202.html

that one suggests that the average rake accross all sites is higher than any single site

Rake % ?
