There ought to be a law.
You should see if somebody with a huge pile of chips will let you play for them. You can keep 1 chip per hour played, no matter how much you win.
If you lose, you're fired, but don't worry. The casino is insuring all losses for the owner.
Talking of which.... Pokerstars final cut was 34k in rake. Who takes a fucking rake in a play money game? At least half of that belonged to me
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

That is a hell of a cut.
I hope they don't rake like that in real money games... if they did I can't see who would bother playing...

Another effect of the US not joining the market and regulating it.

In cash games it's 5% of every pot. In tournaments it's a one off addition of around 10% to your buy in. It actually made me realise how much I have been paying in cash games. I only play low stakes online as a way of practising and just about stay even. The guys playing big stakes must pay a fortune.
I think the play money rake was about the same.

No, it was the same before Americans were excluded.

The 20k buy in to a play money tourney includes 3k rake so only 17k goes into the prize pool. Would have meant we only paid 12k between us but we wouldn't have got 3 hrs play.
Lets hope there's more of us next time.
