poker 500

The game of poker involves both luck and skill. In the short term, luck can play a significant role in determining the outcome of individual hands or sessions. However, over the long term, skill becomes a more important factor in determining success in poker.

Like in the games of chess, Go (game), and many other games, artificial intelligence systems beat even the best humans at poker. Poker is a game of imperfect information (because some cards in play are concealed) thus making it harder for anyone (including a computer) to deduce the final outcome of the hand.

For example on PokerStars if you're playingR$0.01/$0.02 NLHE or PLO then the rake is 3.50% of the pot, capped atR$0.30. If you're playing a bit higher than that, sayR$3/$6, then it's 5% of the pot capped atR$1.50 if there are 2-4 players at the table andR$3.50 if there are five or more players at the table.

It is generally 2.5% to 10% of the pot in each poker hand, up to a predetermined maximum amount.
