Let's compare the rake on an average money game (value estimated as 2.2
points per game) at PartyGammon, TrueMoneygames, GamesGrid,
GammonEmpire/Play65, and BackgammonMasters.
Gammon-
Party- True- Empire/ Backgammon-
Stake Gammon Moneygames GamesGrid Play65 Masters
----------------------------------------------------------------------
$1/point: $0.26 $0.19 $0.08 $0.22 n/a
$2/point: $0.53 $0.39 $0.16 $0.43 n/a
$3/point: $0.79 $0.58 $0.24 $0.65 n/a
$5/point: $1.32 $0.97 $0.30 $1.08 $0.90
$10/point: $2.66 $1.95 $0.30 $2.18 $1.76
$30/point: $7.99 $5.19 $0.80 $5.19 $4.13
$50/point: $10.00 $8.58 $0.80 $8.58 $8.58
$100/point $10.00 $14.96 $0.80 $12.76 $17.16
Note: the rake on TrueMoneygames, GammonEmpire/Play65 and Backgammon-
Masters may be 50% lower (if both players have high ratings) or as much
as 200% higher (depending on the difference between the players' ratings)
than the amounts shown above.
Example: You play for $10/point on PartyGammon. An average game is worth
2.2 points. The "combined wager" is $10 (the stake) * 2.2 (the average
game value) * 6% (PartyGammon's commission) * 2 (the rake is per player)
= $2.66
