Rake Structure
In a game of poker, 'rake' means a certain fee that an online poker platform charge from the player for hosting a poker game. It is a small percentage of the amount of money taken from the pot in cash games. In tournaments, the rake is collected from the buy-in fees. The rake is the primary source of income that the online poker rooms make from poker games.
Since Poker is a player vs player game, the hosting platform doesn’t bet against its players. Therefore, rake is the primary source in poker games to generate revenue.
PokerBaazi charges rake like any other hosting platform and the same has been updated as per the latest GST changes that has been in effect since 1st October, 2023. You can check the amount of rake charged on each variation of the game and the table stakes on the table below:
