    In Response to Re: Rake a suggestion : You said bump the max from 1.80 to 3.00, that is 1.20 extra so 66% more rake?

    No thats maximum rake. I also said after reduce the actual rake for u guys to 3% aswell. Currently its 5% but its less on pots worth £38 or more. 

    At most levels that £38 is reached but on the higher levels i imagine 40BB+ pots are reasonably common.

    lol Ludacris - u make me lol when you oocasionally show up in a thread for a rant!!  And normally its regarding points or rake or promotions. lawls. 

    7.5% is pretty high considering the limping that goes on at sky.  Obv they cant change it as loyalty program would be affected. 

    License to me print money basically. my advice, move up fast or stop withdrawing imo. 

    I'd like to see rake free windows as a promo for say 4nl-20nl 6m tables at certain extremely dead times. Would be sic promo.

    That's a great idea. Thumbs up.

    I am echoing all the comments about reducing the rake to something like 3-4%. But if the plan is to keep the 7.5% rake introducing rake free hours would be nice. Probably something like 2am till 10am when the site is quiet. Maybe even start in after midnight to persuade micro stakes players to keep playing.

    Thanks TPTP for suggesting an alternative option. 

    I know my origional suggestion might have been a little off but was a sugestion i thought others would tweek on rather than ridicule.

    A burning desire

    Tbh watching Wilie really showed me how much i missed MTTs. Its just my game. The issue is, and i mean no disrespect there just not enough mtts on any single site to support it, and i dont have a large enough br to sustain it either. So for now it must stay with NL4 with the odd MTT. However i am considering more so into looking into Mtt staking deals, should the right deal be avalible.

    I've also made huge steps towards improving my mental game. I left several poker groups over the last 24 hours to try and avoid typing rants. Rants which would not only drill in the tilt into my head an make it worse, but when typing them im missing hands and information. Neither is good for us.

    Today i had a mare trying to sleep last night. Missed my full session in the afternoon as a result. I also ended the night session early due to a minor headache.

    However overall the session was a huge improvement. I was running very poorly again. But the rantless session meant i didn't think about it as much and was able to focus on, they won't get there every time and allowed me to also think if i can fold that spot v him in future kind of thing instead.

    In the end i finnished -£3 so less than a buy in loss, altho yet another losing session. Since TOTP i really havent had it easy at all. Which is disappointing but hopefully that will end soon, i am still 20 buy ins up for the month so far, so thats a positive. 

    Onwards and upwards!
