0utpost Posted February 5, 2010 #1 Share Posted February 5, 2010 We are going on a cruise in a week or so on the crown and I was wondering if they had the same rate rake on their poker table as the last princess cruise I went on. 10%!!! Last time I cruised with princess they had put in the computerized poker table. I really enjoyed playing, and won some money, but it is only because I quit after just a few hands. I found out that the rake (the houses take on each pot) is 10%!!!!! So if the pot gets to $150 the house takes $15. Once you've played 20 hands like that there goes $300 right off the table and into the casino's black hole never to be seen or won again. Even the Casino host who came over to get games going and watch said that it was ridiculous, but of course that "there was nothing he could do". So really games only lasted until everyone’s money was sucked up by the casino, so an hour or so. Then everyone would leave and the table would be empty the rest of the night because of the rake. Does anyone know if this is still the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
