Comment now Rake is how poker rooms earn their money. Its the amount deducted (usually 10%) from the pot, which is then given to the house and is capped at a certain amount (usually 5$) in ring games. In tournament, the rakes a minor portion of the players buy-in - obviously, the bulk heads towards the major prize pool. Its not that uncommon for individual players to be contributing thousands of dollars in rake per month whilst playing poker online. Now think about that: a poker room with 5,000 very active players (in reality, the larger rooms are significantly larger!), all contributing a few thousand dollars per month, thats incredible! Poker rakeback is a way for these players to get that money back; a refund, if you will.
Through rakeback, players get back a percentage of the rake that theyve paid to the poker room. A regular rakeback offer is between 25% and 40%, but sometimes players can get even higher payouts. If youre paying 1,000$ a month in rake, and youve got a 30% rakeback deal, youre going to get back 300$. For serious poker players, this can become a large part of their income.
