Eye opening poker stats

[Bhelliom]

From what I understand. Winning or losing as a player is a secondary consideration for a poker site.

Since the money at the online tables primarily just changes hands from one player to the other, I can't really imagine that the online rooms care all that much about who wins or loses.

The money from those places are made from the rake at the table and that is a constant thing. they just take their money off the top regardless of who wins or loses.

From a Business perspective, this is great cause the "house" is making money either way, and doens't have to worry as much about programming and adding all kinds of different things to track individual stats.


From a player perspective, I like this line of thought because it would lead to think that becuase the rooms don't really care who wins or loses you can be fairly sure its a fair game.
