Jack Poker Rake
Rake is a commission that players pay to the platform for organizing the game and the opportunity to use its online site. Rake is calculated differently for cash-games and tournaments:
Cash Games
Jack Poker rake is 5% of the pot size and is fixed by the maximum value, which depends on the selected limits and the number of active players at the table (CAP).
Jack Poker uses a weighted contributed rake method – which is generally the most honest and accurate. It involves redistributing the rake according to the contributions of the players. For example: if one of the players contributed $40 to the pot, and the others $80 each with a rake of $4, he will be charged a rake of $0.8, while the other players will be charged $1.60.
Only post-flop games are raked on Jack Poker, so if a hand ends preflop no rake is taken.
Tournaments
The rake is is equal to 10% of the cost of the tournament buy-in. Usually, the buy-in in tournaments consists of 2 parts: the main amount, which goes to the prize pool of the tournament and the registration fee. For example: $10.00+1.00. You can find out the rake amount for a particular tournament directly in the tournament lobby.
