It's a joke. Feep in mind that some of the players last night were saying how much OTHER GAMES rake compared to these guys. And these guys take 10% on average, usually up to $10 per pot. In the old days, I used to watch them pretty much steal and take $15+, but they seem to be a little better about it now. The best part is, they deal their own game, and everyone is tipping them on TOP of the rake!!! *sigh*
The keep it in one column of the tray, so you can look over and see it at any time. I kept an eye on it last night, and it actually wasn't THAT bad, but it's still ridiculous. I remember calculating in the old days that they could take in $1500-2000 in one night, if the game went really long (like until noon the next day), which happened frequently. $200 per hour was no problem... I'd say they were closer to $100 per hour (maybe $125) last night... I forgot to take a look right before I left.
