hey, just a quick question.. The casino in the city i live only play LHE and PL - 5/10 limit with $100 min buyin and up to 10/20 and for the PL games it is $1000 minbuyin which is too much for me...The casino charges $1 rake from every player every hand even if u fold preflop, basically what i wanna know is if i were to play 5/10 LHE would i be getting ripped off hardcore by the rake?

compared to online yea lol, but 5/10 is about the first one you can beat the rake at live assuming rake is capped at $5

That rake cannot be correct. You are saying for example, that for a 10 person table the house is making a minimum of $10 A HAND and at 30-40 hands per hour, not counting tip, is pulling in a minimum of $300-400 per hour per table?

This is the typical rake in some of the cardrooms in Australia.
No, I do not think that it is beatable.

To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

Note to self: Open a card room in Australia.

$1 rake per person per hand is unbelievable. That's $100 for 100 hands.. meaning at 10/20 you need to make back 5bb/100 hands just to break even.
At the live casinos around here, the rake is usually $5 max (+$1 for the bad beat jackpot) even at 3/6 LHE. It sucks and I'm not sure how beatable that game is in the long run, even when the players are so horrible.
