No rake preflop?

I just realised something...

Looking over a few hands on Titan Poker, I see that they didnt rake preflop...

Is that standard for online? Do all sites not rake a pot that is won preflop?

Are B&M games the same way?

Clearly,I have not been paying enough attention to things like that.

no flop no drop?

Standard.

There not suppossed to rake the pot if a flop isn't seen.

It's like that on every site.

And just think.... It only took me almost 2 years to catch that.

Albert Einstine I'm not.

In Australia there is only one casino in most of the Capital cities so some of them act, well, like anyone who has a monopoly...

My local (Sydney) B&M gets their rake by taking $1.50 of EVERYONE sitting the the table before every hand at the $5/$10 Limit table. This is also the lowest limit offered.

WTF? Every hand?

wow that sucks, but then the rake normally maxes out in 5/10 lhe anyway (a lot)

Yep.

You're essentially paying 2 * the blinds ($30) per orbit on a full table... you obviously wouldn't want to be trying to make a living there when there are other options.

ugh, the games could very well be good enough to make up for it though. It might be close.
