Lock Poker won't disclose their rake structure on Revolution Network

[Dan Druff]

Not a huge scandal by any means, but just more evidence to pile on indicating Lock's persistent shadiness.

As most of you know, Lock left Merge in June, 2012, bought the Cake network, and renamed it "Revolution Gaming".

Someone there asked for the rake structure, and Lock claimed that they didn't have that information!

Hi,

I am looking for the rake structure chart on your website and I have not been able to find it.
Could you please send me an up to date rake chart for all limits and formats thanks?

Hello Sxxxxxx,

Thank you for your email. Apologies I'm afraid there isn't one available at present but we hope to have one available in the near future.

Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Kind Regards,

Sean.

Keep in mind that Lock has been on Revolution since June (7 months now), and in fact own the network. It takes like an hour to type up a rake structure sheet. Yet they haven't found the time to do this?

Riiiiiiiiiiiight.

Here is a "rake calculator" on Intertops, which is also on Revolution:

The problem is that you have to select the specific game you want, rather than just get a list of all rakes.

Here is the original thread about it: http://www.highstakesdb.com/forum/63...re?PageIndex=1

Picture is small so it took me awhile to get the joke.

But seriously, it's pretty LOL for a poker site to not have information available about their own rake structure, especially when they've owned the entire network for 7 months.

they put this up yesterday I believe: http://lockpoker.eu/support/rake/, same as the other skins you mentioned

It's pretty filthy that the cap of $3 full ring is the same for both $0.10/$0.20 NL and $50/$100 NL.

Also the cap of $0.50 heads up is the same for all limits from $0.01/0.02 through to $500/$1000.

I guess this is the same for most rooms though - screwing the low limit players.
