    Is there any rake for this game?
  • Mikeyd114Mikeyd114
    8 percent

    For those keeping score at home...

    That makes this game illegal. And you'd face charges should police decide to make a visit.

    LOL, tried to apply again as per below... Seems he thinks he's providing a "customer service" with no profit to himself... Sure he is..

    Example of how to make friends.. Not sure when he thinks the law changed.... Like non of us have ever played in inderground games, I know some still do but we know the risk.. No FREE advertising here. non raked home games only allowed.

    bugsy here.
    RAKE is not ILLEGAL as long as the venue is a registered social club with the Ontario Government.Rake is allowed as long as the HOUSe is not mkaing a profit. since we have 5 snowflake admins who cant afford to play anything higher then .50 cent dollar games or 600 man tourneys with a 40 dollar prize pool.
    Rake is allowed to pay for rent employees and services AKA YOUR FUCKING DEALERS. AND EVEN IF THE POLICE DID SHOW NO PLAYER CAN BE CHARGED. Ive been running card rooms in ontario before you even knew what balls was. AKA as todays version of hold em. Admins just mad they cant afford to play anythin g outside of low stajkes and have overall losing evs and rois.

    Wonder if he knows "our" snowflake?
  • where the ca$h be @where the ca$h be @
    He also highlights "FREE FOOD BEER SNACKS SODAS ETC".... pretty sure ALGCO would endorse that

    Lol love the rationalization going on here. "The house isn't taking rake because the rake is going to dealers/food."

    Good luck explaining that to the cops when they bust you dude.
  • compueasecompuease Admin
    I'm almost tempted to let him back on for a while so he can attempt to justify.. Should I? Might be entertaining...

    Interesting long thread on 2+2 re the state of poker in Toronto, starting in 2010 to current. Lots of talk about legalities as well.

    Interesting Markham gambling den... Certainly not one of the undergrounds that I have been to years ago.. Wonder if Bugsy is really Wei Wei..

    This is just a question, i am not looking to argue with anyone, just genuinely curious, what is the problem with someone making a profit holding games? Especially if they are providing you with free food and drinks and giving you a place to possibly make some money playing cards. Is it strictly the legality or is there some other reason?
    I ask because i play at a raked game regularly and i dont see the issue. i also used to run a regular game with a rake, and im also sure we have all played at casinos where they all take a rake, so ya im just curious?
  • FalloonFalloon
    I don't have a problem with rake as long as the rake% and max rake are known by the players, and adhered to by the establishment.

    I have occasionally played in raked home games, and raked underground games. If I don't like the terms of the game, I either don't go at all, or don't go back.

    I once played a 1/2 underground game in Mississauga, where there was no straight answer about how much the rake was, and then I counted $25 being taken from a $150 pot. I left immediately after that hand.

    I’m going to guess the issue wasn’t with the illegal game it’s self, but with the user advertising the game on this forum.

    This forum has (albeit 15 years ago) been monitored by the OPP. A game we were planning that was going to take money out for prizes and such. The OPP knocked on the door of a reg.

    People not minding a rake is fine and what not. It does make the game illegal and you could face fines and or court dates.

    Also.... Given casinos are clearly doing their best to kill casino poker interest... Let's just make card rooms legal.

    I'd quit my job tomorrow to run one.

    I suppose i understand that, but my question came about because it seemed like the posters were almost angry at a guy that wanted to hold a raked game. Like, personally, from the sounds of it, it sounded like a game i would like to go to. Give me free food and drinks and give me a chance to make a few hundred dollars in a few hours or a night and i am happy to see you also make a profit from a rake. god knows any of us that play on stars are paying plenty of rake, and they are not ordering us pizza! lol
  • trigstrigs
    To be clear, my post was not out of anger at all. I've played in raked home games but I prefer no rake as I normally don't partake in "free" food or alcohol anyway. I just thought it was funny that the guy argued he isn't taking a rake since the money goes towards food/drinks. Pretty dumb rationalizing there.
  • DrTyoreDrTyore
    I'm with trigs here (wtf?)

    Dude was saying nonsense about its legality and trying to convince people of his interpretation / beliefs. Because he simply wanted something to be true, he ignored the facts.

    There needs to be a term for something like that. Might be helpful to identify it whenever we see it in any other aspects of our lives.

    My two cents as someone who has played in many many underground games. Most of these places do take extra rake. I have even caught “so called” friends taking extra rake out of big pots. You need to really watch the dealers in these games, I have even seen dealers “make change” and then an extra chip goes into the rack that is only for tips. You need to be aware if you play in any underground game that the dealers can make shit happen.

    Most of the time the rake is unbeatable unless you get up over 5-10 even with no dealer shenanigans.
