What is Rakeback, and how do I get it?
Wouldn’t it be nice if, every time you sat down for dinner at a classy restaurant, you got a little bit of the sales tax on the bill returned to you? That extra cash could be used for dessert or an extra beer…
Or have you ever been sitting around the poker table at your local card room, missing each and every draw all night long while watching the dealer constantly push the chips to your opponents – after a few of them get put aside for the house, of course. Your losing night may feel a bit better if you could dip into that chunk of chips going to the card room and return home with a wallet that’s a little less light.
Rakeback is the solution and, often in the context of poker, it’s as important to a player’s bottom line as knowing when to fold pocket rockets on the River when you know you’re behind. Many poker players have heard the term ‘rakeback’ but there are many questions about this sometimes confusing source of extra income. But before we come to that, we need to understand what ‘rake’ is. Essentially, rake is a portion of any money you bring to the poker tables that ends up going to the poker room. Whether it’s online poker or live at the casino, because there is no ‘edge’ for the House (like in Blackjack or Craps, for example), it is through the rake that the House makes a profit and is thus able to provide the games and keep them going.
How the card rooms generate rake varies based on the format of play. When playing cash games, rake is pulled off any pot that reaches a Flop and is generally based on the amount each player contributes to the pot. For example, at $0.50/$1, if it’s folded round to the Button, whose raise to $4.50 gets a call from the Small Blind but a fold from the Big Blind, the pot would be $10. Even though the Big Blind didn’t make it to the Flop, they still contributed 10% of the (current) pot so ended up paying 10% of the rake despite having folded. The Button and Small Blind, meanwhile, are in for a higher amount, so would be paying a higher portion of the rake to the House.
In a Sit & Go or Multi-Table Tournament the rake is generally a portion of the buy-in – either included in the total or, in live poker rooms, frequently shown as part of the buy-in (A $100+$15 tournament would have $100 going to the player prize pool and $15 to the casino). So, no matter which format is your preferred choice, “the House always wins” effectively applies to poker as well, and with online poker you are generally paying between 4% and 10% in rake, depending on the poker room. Micro and lower limits tend to have a higher percentage rake compared with the higher stakes, but be sure to check out our reviews of each site to help determine what is best for you.
Rakeback, then, is the secret to dipping your hands into the casino’s money and getting a portion of all that rake you paid at the tables. It’s a monetary ‘thank you’ from the poker room and allows a percentage of your generated rake to go right back in your account. Poker rooms generally calculate rakeback using one of three methods:
- Contributed Rakeback: With this method your rake is based on the percentage of money you contribute to the pot. For example, if you bet $10 in a cash game and the rake at that poker room is 10%, you would contribute $1 in rake for this hand. On a rakeback offer of 25%, a player then gets $0.25 back for this one hand.
- Dealt Rakeback: Here what matters is who was dealt into the hand versus how much each player contributed. Rakeback is awarded to all of the players. Here’s an example: if you are sitting at a cash game with four other players and the casino is charging a 10% rake, if the pot hits $100 the House will take $10 rake. Under a 25% rakeback deal that $10 then gets split evenly between all the players who were dealt in the hand, so you would receive $0.50 rakeback. This is not the best if you were the aggressor putting in a chunk of the money, but a great solution for the tight player who wants to hold back and wait for a nice premium hand.
- Progressive Rakeback: A hybrid of both of the above, the rakeback percentage depends on the number of hands played or rake paid. If a player is very active and is involved in a large number of hands, then their percentage rakeback increases. The more rake a player generates, the higher the percentage they get back. This is often the best option for regular grinders and multi-tablers who put in the volume to reach the targeted levels.
