raked pots, balik, 11. May 2003 20:25
    View ( Message | Thread )       Return to Thread List
Hi all:

I am very new at playing poker and definitely consider myself a student of the game. I am still learning all the terminology that goes along with the game.

I signed up yesterday to play for real money and received a deposit bonus. The stipulation to receive this money was to play a certain number of raked hands.

I sat in on 50 hands, however when I checked my bonus account I was only credited with 34.

Are there times when a pot is not raked?

If so how can I tell when a hand is raked and when it is not?

Thanks for your input.

Most sites have a no flop no drop policy.

Check the site's website to see their rake policy and you'll then know if a pot is over a certain size that there is a rake.

Also, many sites have a graphical representation of the rake by where the 'dealer' is.

Thanks,

They do have a pot limit before they rake.

It makes perfectly good sense.
