I wonder if Pinny was going to offer reduced Rake or No Rake and WSEX wants to beat them to it. Bye Bye Party and Doyles!


No Rake: How Can We Do It?



"For those of us who like to play high stakes tournaments on-line, it makes no sense to play anywhere else. The savings are huge."
- Max Pescatori
It seems to good to be true—how can we offer no-rake poker? Why aren’t other sites doing it? What’s the catch? The answers are actually quite simple.

Most online poker sites have a single revenue stream: collecting upwards of 5% out of every winning pot. In today’s growth-driven industry, it’s simply impossible for them to reduce, let alone eliminate, their single source of income. World Poker Exchange, however, has many sources of revenue, including World Sports Exchange, one of the most successful sportsbooks on the Internet. We’re confident that no-rake poker will deliver major new traffic to our other businesses, including sports wagering, in-running betting, horse racing and casino wagering.

Now, with 100% of the rake being rebated to your account every week, you’ll only have to worry about outfoxing the other players at your table, rather than having to beat the house as well. This will give all our players a much greater opportunity to achieve a net profit at the tables and will allow them to save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars a month. We can’t think of any better way to mark World Sports Exchange’s tenth year in business.

When you realize that this is not too good to be true, you won’t want to waste your money at anyone else’s tables.

Fishhead! I have a question for you!! Why do you use so many exclamation points!!! Seems like 90% of your sentences end in exclamation points!!!! Are you a hyper guy who likes to show how excited you are after every statement you make!!!!! Some people say if you use exclamation points too much, they then to lose their desired effect!!!!! Seinfeld did an episode about people like you who use exclamation points too much!!!!!!!

I believe it has already started. I am not sure of the timing of the refunds. The above came from their website after hitting the poker link.

is this the rake you pay on every pot? or the missing rake from winning pots?

How do they make money???

The players that could be losing this money in their sportsbook/casino will be losing it to other sharp poker players.

This doesn't make much sense to me...

They explain this in their opening remarks in the opening post in this thread.

Dante- If I am not mistaken, you mentioned you have never played with WSEX..........well I would certainly think you would now with this offer!

So think of the HUNDREDS that will now do the same as you!

Quite frankly, WSEX just vaulted up another notch..........which was hard to do since they were near the very top allready!
