DYM RAKE

bludreid11

 As a person who can only look in awe at people who can lose £300 and reload  another £300 straight away.
 with a limited bankroll allocated each month i play dym's
 To try and build a bankroll at these tables is nigh impossible.

for instance

  if you take part in 3 dym's at any level win 2 lose one which i think is about average so at £5.50 level


 £5.50x3 invested out lay  £16.50
             return                 £20
             roi                      £3.50
as it takes about an hour on average to play these games you may be able to play 6.in a day.
please sky reduce the rake on dyms to  5%

There's been many threads about this before bluereid11, a new one pops up about once a month. Sky are highly unlikely to reduce the rake in these because they're very popular and fill so quickly at the current level.

Yeah this is something that annoyed me ages ago when I was trying to grind up my BR through DYMs. You really have to be a consistent winner of DYMs to make money because obviously the rake means you're not actually doubling your money, so really you need to be winning more than 2 out of every 3.

Multi-tabling DYMs is the only way of speeding up the process but still small wins really. But as with anything, if you don't like it, don't play them.

I sometimes have a go of the 10 man (35p) bounty hunter SnG if I just want some cheap fun and you can get around £2 for a win with a few heads there, decent return.

As Gary said, there have been posts about this before, and they usually get kicked into the long grass that is community suggestions, where they wither and die.

It is obvious to all who play them that the rake is too high and should be reduced, but Sky don't seem to value the players opinions on this.

As you say, you have to find a level where you are consistently winning 2/3 for a small return, and play multitable to make a decent profit.

Best of luck at the DYM tables once Sky have reduced the rake(I live in hope).

to break even at 10% rake u need to cash in 55% of DYMs. so if u catch in 6/10, u get a 15% ROI.

You need to cash in 6 out of 11, to break even, so yes 55%.

But 6/10 wins gives an ROI of 8% (not 15%)

eg

10 x £5.50 = £55.00 invested

6 wins x £10 = £60.00 return

Profit  £60.00 - £55.00 = £5.00

£5.00 / £55.00 = 8.33%

If the rake were halved to 5% the profit for 6/10 wins would increse to £7.50 on £52.50 invested, that's an ROI of 14.28%

Winning 6/9, returns £10.50 for an investment of £49.50

A return of 21.2%, if you can achieve the ratio of wins. 

Pretty hard though given the variance.

I dont think that is a hard rate to get this win rate IMO, they are very soft so makes up for rake. always a good way to get your bankroll up and/or win money for freerolling tourneys

Yep I use them to generate the entry fees for any satallites that I enter.  Basically a sat into a sat.

But if the OP is  wanting to make money using DYMs only, the problem is the time it takes to win a substantial amount, unless you can achieve  the 2/3 ratio at a significant level.

Yeah thats a valid point i often play 4 @ 5.50 and generally aim to win 3/4 which is ok winning rate
