    Lou....When was it decided that Non-Pros can play poker now?


    In a few months are non-pros also going to be getting 12 points/day and have lower prices in the store?

    I have never played. Do you charge a rake at cash games? If so could you post the breakdown? Thanks.

    There's a rake, it charges less than the standard posted by Poker Stars per pot.

    I'm using Crossover with my Macbook and going to play in a tourney today. Does anyone else use this? I clicked on the 'mini' view to see what it was like and now can't get back to normal view. Any help out there?

    Why isn't it always open? Or at least more than 3 hours a day only 4 days a week... I understand it's open all day right now but after the tourny is over will it be going back to normal hours?

    What is the RAKE for these live games?

    Also, does BODOG profit from the RAKE in these games?

    As stated in post 6, there is a rake. It's not hidden, on the table it displays the amount taken per pot.

    It's hard coded into the software/source code, it's not something we've yet been able to disable but plan to for SBR PRO's. The amounts charged per hand are less than the industry standard, so it shouldn't catch any regular poker player by surprise.
