thanks for responding i thought it was a bit high but like i said thats what she told me was the usual rake at home games she deals at so i figured i was right on par with the usual games around here
If you're going to cap at $20 I'd expect some topless dealers or something.
The casino does a 10% rake to a max of $5. Home games, imo, should be less. If you did a 5% rake to a max of $10 I think you'll still have more than even.
I know a few people that do teh same home game idea. 1/2, 500 max BI, 10% rake to $5 with free food and booze. The guy still brings home more cash then food/booze he puts out.
thanks guys for the info, hearing other peoples thought and opinions is great to help keep our game running and bringing people back any more info or thoughts i love to hear them so keep sending them
thanks again guys for your input syphilaids your input was great we are gonna go with the 10% up to 5 bucks rake, honestly thanks again guys since i have joined this site and i have been reading tons of different threads you guys are great for honest input and feed back thanks again
you know i have heard that a few games in the lower mainland have that going i know they were the 5/5 game and it was 10/hr for a seat, i guess we will see how the rake goes and go from there all of these different options are great guys

Not knowing how it is like there, thought I would ask. Is the legal situation any different than here? ie are they raiding and shutting down raked games?
i have heard of more fundraiser tournaments of them raiding and shutting them down cash home games are harder for them to find i think because it is a usually a common group of people and words spreads at the casino
Hendo...with a 5 buck cap, that is much more reasonable..and honestly...if you are feeding people free booze, I would love to check out the game
Comp..there isn't too much busting of illegal games here these days,(legalities are no different) but, not to say they aren't looking. I haven't heard of any fundraiser busts or cash game busts in a loooong time out here. That being said, I am not in the city..and may not hear everything going on..but I am always on the listen for these things..
