Basically, the rake on Carbon is really high, and I'm not sure I can beat it. The rakeback and other rewards are terrible too. So I might withdraw and switch sites to find a better option in the next few weeks.

This is the current rake. It's pretty much uncapped at low limits. Does anyone know how this compares to other competing sites? And how about live play? I know live rake is a higher %, but I believe the cap is lower?

Ok for bovada there lowest stakes are 5nl so for every 20 cents in the pot they take out 1 cent out if the pot is below 20 cents they dont take any thing so I think yhere rake is very doable but when you sign up try to get a rake back plan

At Carbon it's 1 cent out of every 18, but I think it's the super high cap that makes the biggest difference. I have played at Bovada and know that the rake there is easily beatable, but I was just hoping someone with more knowledge on rake or experience playing with a rake structure like this to come in and shed some light on whether or not it's going to be a problem to win any money there.
