Bigger than that then the rake goes up exponentially, also if the club offers certain 'amenities' (use your imagination.) than the rake would go up as well. If your playing low stakes (1/2 and below) than the usual rake for NYC would usually be in the $7-10 range. Only good thing about whatever game you found is that it is 5% vs 10%. That rake is a little higher than an average NYC club (their not cardrooms, obviously NOT legal in anyway shape or form) Am I crazy or is this room raking way too much to be worthwhile? I mean if you double up on a $200 stack you're paying $15 in rake? That said, I've never heard of a rake cap above $6 per pot. That cap seems WAY high, but I've never played in a card room in New York before. I have been in contact with the guy who runs the room and he said the rake is 5% up to $15 per pot in a small NL game. I just moved to NYC recently and found a game.
