Seneca Poker Room Rake
The rake is defined below for each game which we spread. We do not charge rake if the hand ends on the first betting round (before the flop in Hold’em or Omaha, before Fourth Street in Stud variants, or before the Draw in Draw variants).
The HORSE mixed game includes only Limit games in the rotation, and therefore will be raked according to the Fixed Limit structures.
Some poker rooms offer nothing at all to players, while others offer as much as $2 per hour. Most pay around $1 an hour or thereabouts. At face value, it might seem like the rake and comps are too. First off they spread 1-2 ($100-$200), 1-3 ($100-$300), 2-5 ($200-$1,000). Comp is $1 an hour, $2 an hour for 2-5. Rake has also changed, 10% up to $5 plus $2 for promos & bad beat ($7 total).

PokerStars Ring Game Poker Table Rake. The rake is defined below for each game which we spread. We do not charge rake if the hand ends on the first betting round (before the flop in Hold’em or Omaha, before Fourth Street in Stud variants, or before the Draw in Draw variants).
We offer mixed games that have parts of game rotation which are Fixed Limit, and other parts which are No Limit and/or Pot Limit. Hands played at these tables are raked according to the type of game dealt in a particular hand.
We also offer a selection of special poker game variants – see here for rake information for those games.
‘Number of players’ in the tables below refers to the players who were dealt into that particular hand, not the number seated at the table.
The tables below also represent the rake for both regular ring game and Zoom tables.
True Percentage Rake
Ring game rake is calculated as a true percentage using the ‘round half to even’ method of rounding.
Non-USD Currency Rake
The caps for non-USD games are subject to quarterly review and may be changed due to fluctuations in the exchange rates.

40. In multiple-blind games, players must meet the total amount of their blind obligations every round, or they will receive a missed blind button.
41. In any all-in situation a partial blind constitutes a full blind.
