Any ploppers want to try and get some OH8 cash games going?

I know the rake isn't the best but at least it is mitigated somewhat by the points race promotion.

Sat at .10pl and .20pl if anyone is up for a game.

thanks for the offer marky but i would probably end up loosing my stack lol be lucky

markycash

I would like to. But dont have that much of a br to donate. Ill stick at donating on the dyms for now

No worries, will maybe bump this later when more people are around

Sat at all stakes from 0.04pl to 0.50pl but no takers for half an hour.

Ill play lower stakes gladly but think 10.and 20 is a bit much if things go south.  Lowere stakes will not ne as bad for 1 or 2 buyins.

Rake is just too high. We had fun on the 9 seater ages ago but with the split pots it was bad. Rake should drop.from7.5% to around 5% the table would get lots of action. Maybe tikay can have a word. Pretty please.

The tables do seem eerily quiet considering there is a pool of OH8 players here.

Don't know if there is a technical reason that prevents a change being made so that the rake is on a par with holdem but it seems like a lose lose situation at the moment. The rake makes it prohibitive for players so we don't get cash games and Sky gets almost no rake.

Seems like a needless status quo.

The rake is an issue. Very disheartening when you split a large pot.

However if it was 5% or even less I think most of us would still  be avoiding you.

Nah, you would do fine!

Cash games were never my favourite domain, just doing it for the points

So how about it people in suits upstairs?

Can we have cheap rake and free popcorn plz (willing to negotiate on the popcorn).

Surely charging extra rake from ploppers is discriminating against us on the grounds of our 'poker religion' and contrary to the 'Poker Equality Act 2010' or something similar.

so is it a no go for 4nl???

The Outlaws have been known to have a drunken November 9 PLO8 cash session on occassions.

Don't expect anyone to have the faintest idea about what's going on though. Those that do know how to play the game will probably be drunk or asleep, still at the table obviously, but just drunk or asleep.

ha ha these games are a laugh, we haven't done one for a while......

In all seriousness I would be delighted to play OH8 cash, but as many have said, with pot being split so many times it is a rake trap.

I dont know if its possible to alter or cap it on a split pot for example.  I remember splitting one pot at 2/4p and it costing me 60p
