Rake Sensitivity Study Prompts
Open Raise RangeModerate Rake Sensitivity
Marginal opens may lose value as rake rises; verify a concrete spot before changing a range.
3-Bet FrequencySpot Dependent
Rake alone does not determine a 3-bet frequency; positions, stacks, sizing, and ranges remain required.
Cold Call RangeModerate Rake Sensitivity
Calls that realize thin edges can be sensitive to rake; this model does not choose between call, raise, or fold.
C-Bet FrequencyBoard And Range Dependent
No postflop betting frequency can be inferred from a rake percentage without a full decision tree.
Suited ConnectorsModerate Rake Sensitivity
Speculative hands may be rake-sensitive, but a concrete position and action are required for a range decision.
KEY INSIGHT
This Teaching Estimate Uses A 5% Rake, $1 Cap, $0.1 Big Blind, A Pot Equal To 12% Of The Selected Stack, 28 Hands Per Hour, And A 35% Raked-Pot Share. It Estimates 5.9BB/Hour Under Those Assumptions. It Does Not Solve A Poker Tree, Produce EV, Or Prescribe Any Range Or Action.
