Worlds First Dedicated Rake Free Poker Site Launches!

May 12th, 2006
www.cardcrusade.com has officially launched the only dedicated Rake-Free site on the internet. Online players have begun to recognize the ridiculous amounts of money they are paying to play poker. www.cardcrusade.com has introduced a Rake-Free service which offers online poker at a fraction of the cost of traditional service providers.
10 to 20 times more players will be profitable by playing poker on www.cardcrusade.com. All players will benefit from extended play time and reduced variability in their profitability.
The “Poker Rake” is the common term applied to describe the scaled commission fees taken from a player's poker winnings by service provider. It is often referred to as the "hidden player" because in most poker games it is a significant drain on player profitability. It is generally 10% per each hand played in "bricks and mortar" establishments and 5%-10% per each hand played at online poker sites.
www.cardcrusade.com is unique in offering a commercially viable alternatives to “The Rake” that ensure a healthy service provision whilst at the same time maximizing play time and profitability for their players.
www.cardcrusade.com offers a subscription for unlimited Rake-Free poker or alternatively a Flat Pot Fee per hand won. Either option ensures a huge costs savings versus a traditionally raked poker site. Remarkably, even whilst cutting the cost of play by 85%+ CardCrusade.com has still been able to offer industry firsts such as League Games and Customized Tables for all of its players.
Industry experts are uncertain as to whether the trend to provide Rake-Free sites will become more widespread, or if all new and existing sites will continue to use the regular raking system. Regardless, at the time of this writing, CardCrusade.com is the only site to offer a dedicated Rake-Free poker service on the web.
