Just Another Reason to Get Good at Poker

We got the 4Putt Open in a few weeks (June 7 thur 10)and although I have written about this subject before - it bears repeating. Hope I listen to my own advice.

Good dealers can get out forty hands an hour. If you are playing in a $4/8 game the dealer will take around $4/5 per hand for the house. That comes out to $240 off the table in an hour, counting tips to the dealer!

If ten players sat down with $40 each and played an hour and a half, the entire table would be broke in an hour and a half.

Clearly the answer is to play at the highest level you comfortably can to limit the effect of the house rake on your bankroll.

Or play at NPP, Boother's and Beerhog's!
