What is Rakeback?

Online poker rooms make their money by automatically taking a cut of the players stake money, this is called the “rake”. Typically the rake is 5% of every pot, you will often see it being taken and stacked at the top of the table during a game. Playing a few hundred hands a month soon accumulates a large amount of rake, and you could be paying tens of thousands of dollars a year in rake. Rakeback was introduced for the online poker players who consistently play on daily basis. Online Poker Rooms value these players as VIP’s and in return offer better incentives for their business. Rakeback Rebates are often not advertised directly by the Poker Rooms as the program was specifically intended for the high volume player.

Do they give rakeback for SIT-N-GOs?

Of course. I play heads up sit n gos for a living, so naturally I would only chose a rakeback site that did indeed accept players who play sit n gos. Both cash game players and sit n go players are welcome to join.

One last time, why should I do this?

The question really is why should you not? If you join one of their supported poker rooms without signing up for rakeback first, it’s like throwing money down the toilet. If you’re going to be playing regardless, why not get paid to do so? The best part is that even if you’re only a break even player, you could theoretically support yourself off of just rakeback alone.

Where do I sign up?

My personal choice was RakeTheRake.com - They are totally reputable, very dependable and have been around for years, so you can count on this money for years to come. The best part is that they deposit your rakeback payments once a month directly into your poker account, so there’s no need to set up other payment arrangements. If you prefer another way, they also have the following options: Paypal, NETELLER, Bank Transfer, and Check.
