Poker rakes
Filed Under (Poker Basics, Poker Tips) by qwcdirect on 27-02-2010

Whenever we play poker at the table, we pay some amount to the casino for each hand. This amount is termed as poker rake and it often totals to a very small amount that you hardly mind giving it out. In this way, casinos bring in their money and you will be surprised to know how large this amount can be when summed up annually.
Now, you have a chance to claim back the amount you have paid as rakes in the form of rakeback. There are several service providers over the internet that keep account of all the poker rakes you have paid with every hand you have played and a percentage of these rakes are returned back to you at the end of the month, week or day. The amount that is returned back to you is around 25% to 50%. Although this amount seems to be too small, it will be a huge sum when you total it up on a long term basis.
A huge number of players have already taken advantage of this service by playing on many tables at the same time. The money that they earn accounts to thousands, excluding their winnings.
