I am new at 888poker and i started playing their 6,40$ hypers. It should be 6$ + 40c rake. but every time i win, i get only 11,60$..... pretty weird, Am i missing something? can someone pls explain it to me?
Maybe they don't charge the rake on the entry, just on the end result.I'm not really sure, I would pay attention to your balance before and after.By the way, what is the structure for that buyin level? $6 + .40 for a hyper turbo is INSANE high rake. That's over 5%, and even 5% rake for any hyper turbo structure is incredibly high. Standard rates are 2-4%.
888 hyper turbos$25+1$50+2 but its not as bad as on ipoker.10/20, 20/40, 30/60, 50/100 1500 stacks, 1 min blinds, software is slow$20+1$50+2.5$100+55% fees for a fast structure. Ongame is worse. They don't have hypers though. $20+2$30+3$50+4USA sites actually have really good structure and fees compared to euro sites with the exception of America's cardroom (yahtah network).
5% rake, minus your 40-60% rakeback on Ipoker gets it around 2.5% effective rake.888's 4% rake, minus whatever their VIP value is (probably no more than 30%), is going to end up around 2.5% effective rake as well.Both sites are soft, and Ipoker's structure allows a little bit less edge, but it's close. Population should be greater on Ipoker, but 888 might be slightly softer.Edit: Referring to the $20-50 levels, definitely DO NOT play that $6 level, it's the definition of rake rape!
erm it's my understanding that 888 has one of the worst VIP programs going - for lowraking players eff rakeback is something like 2%. Im assuming husng players, even hypers, will be lowraking.
