    Default Dailypoker.com?/Who's got some of the best rake rates for

    Hi everyone

    I'm currently playing no limit .02/.04 poker on PartyPoker.com I think I'm an okay player. Lately, I've been looking at other sites for lower rake limits. Party is at 5% right now.

    So I have a few questions
    1)Some of dailypoker.com's rake looked good but I don't see a review of it here on the site. What do people think of this site?

    I'm also looking for rakeback which is something I've never done before. I see there are some opportunities on the site here which look great.
    2)For the type of limits I play in, what site can I get the lowest rake percentage at?

    3)Also, what percentage of rake in everybody's opinion is too much?

    Thanks for any help guys and girls. It's appreciated.

    rake just isnt important at those stakes in NL games.

    Dailypoker isnt reviewed probably because its an obscure skin of a pokerroom (i cant even see what network its part of)

    If you are playing less than 100nl, you should be chasing bonuses not looking for rakeback.

    Why is that? It's seems to be standard advice that after 100NL you should get rakeback, but as far as I can see on bonuswhores, most bonuses is still more $ pr/h than rakeback?

    most bonuses are constant. you get so much per hand so that's basically a horizontal line on a graph of bonus(y) with respect to stakes(x). y=k

    rakeback depends on the rake generated which increases also less than linearly as a function of game stakes but at a much higher rate. Something like y = kx^y, where 0<y<1. Probably 0.7 or something

    therefore, at some point these two lines will intersect and that point is generally thought to be at the 200 or 400NL mark.

    Why do people keep saying that? For a start, it's possible to do both on several sites (Crypto for example); secondly, I have made well over $100 a month rb at $25NL, plus reload bonuses, and I don't even play that much!

    Always look for rakeback, and always make sure that if you do sign up for a site, you get rakeback if it's available.

    bonuses are taken from rb payments. Crypto, is an exception to the rule. Also, if you are playing enough hands to clear a certain amount of rb, you will be clearing moreag several sites clearing bonuses and reloads at anything below 100nl. Its not even close either.

    Well, I signed up for Sunpoker for the rakeback and the bonuses but I can't put in any money yet.

    Take it from someone who made the mistake. I signed up a year ago at Fulltilt. I finally made my first deposit this month. Guess who can't get rakeback now. Ever.
