Live Poker Rake Calculator
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.
Deposit: 100% Poker Rake Calculator - €/$200 + 30 FS Poker Rake Calculator on Gold King. Qualifying deposit is €/$20. Players must wager the bonus amount 35x before any withdrawals can be made. Please use the rake calculator below to calculate the rake schedule Rake is the scaled commission fee taken by Juicy Stakes for hosting poker Cash Games, Tournaments and Sit&Go's - similar to all brick & mortar casinos. The amount of rake removed from each pot is based on two elements: a) game stakes and b) how many players were dealt cards. That is how online poker sites facing the US such as Ignition Poker and Bovada Poker keep players happy, by keeping these costs down. (If you are in Canada, 888 Poker is a great low-rake option). It’s often common for players to ask for and receive a reduced rake when live cash games become short-handed, so it remains to be seen how casinos will handle the drop when casinos reopen and if.
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.
