Sky Poker, one of England’s biggest online poker providers, is discounting its rake by 50 percent this weekend in all heads-up games with blinds of €1/€2 or higher.  This means that Sky Poker’s normal 5 percent rake will be reduced to 2.5 percent beginning at 6am London time on Friday, March 23, through 6am on Monday, March 26, 2012.

In addition to temporarily slashing its rake in half in certain games, Sky Poker is also limiting the amount that can be taken out of any pot on a heads-up table with minimum blinds of €1/ €2 to only €0.25 during this same time period.
