- RakeBack |
In the casino there are two ways for the house to make money - directly, as in blackjack or slot machines, and with the rake. When you play poker in an online casino, the house takes a certain amount of money from each hand, an amount that sums up to thousands of dollars, and that is called the rake. Even though one may think that he is losing almost nothing to the house, the proffesionals know that they actually leave big amounts of money at the poker table, and give it to the rake.
In order to tempt these proffesionals poker players to play at online casinos, some casinos give them a certain precentage from the rake back. If in the end of the month a poker player left in the rake 2000 dollars, he will get 700-800 dollars back from the rake. Ofcourse, this only applies to big blackjack casino clubs, and this is the reason it is called the RakeBack Club. Only the finest and the most proffesional poker players get this bonus of a getting their money back from the rake.
The precentage of the rake that you get back to your pocket is very different between online casinos and poker rooms. Some casinos won't give you any rakeback, while some will give you a modest precentage of 25% and the good ones will give you even 40% from the rake. Before you go to play poker in an online casino, you should check what is the rakeback precentage.
