Private Rake Race
October
28, 2008
One of PokerTime’s most inventive poker games is the $200,000 Rake Race. The
game is easily one of the internets largest and most popular online poker
games, and tons of people participate in it any chance they get. However, PokerTime has decided to make it private which many people will find
refreshing.
The poker provider decided to move it to their private tables so that they
could make it more exclusive. Now the only people who can participate are
those that are PokerTime players only.
In order to play at one of the private tables, you have to be a member, and
you have to look for the special tables. They are indicated in green on the
software.
The poker site has already paid out more than $600,000 in prize money for
the Rake Race and they know that they will continue paying out more now that
they are on the private tables. By moving it to the private tables, they are
going to be able to keep the quality of play improving.
The improved game play will only make poker players more likely to
participate as they know that it is only serious players at the tables. The
rest of the Rake Race will remain the same with it still offering $200,000
top prize and running every month. The top players will still make between
$20 and $25,000, and everyone still stands a chance at winning.
