Not quite, 1 pound is worth about $0.54. If you used the link I posted you would know this

Or, you could realize it doesn't matter. If a pound is worth 95 cents or 2 cents, you're still palying with chips. When you cash in and cash out, the conversion is the same, so it's a wash. Sit with the US$ amount you want to play with (however many pounds that may be), and then just play normal poker.

A basic awareness of the exchange rate would be a good idea for game selection (so you know what tables you want to play at), but once you choose a table, the conversion means nothing.

That is what I meant.

Rake is relative.

But if you are playing 1 lb./2 lb., or $1/$2, it's almost like playing $2/$4 if you are playing in pounds.

Exactly.

Yeah, but if you're a 5/10 USD player and sit down at a 5/10 euro table you're playing for twice the stakes. That was the point. Either way, this is becoming annoying.

I say we all take all of our money, start a $100/$200 private table, and just cap everything, winner takes all.

Can you tell "professional" play is making me fucking nuts?
