Live tournament poker has become tougher for players in recent years, and increasing rake may be another reason why. A new analysis from Card Player compared tournament rake from 2025–26 with similar events from 2015 and 2019.

For example, the WSOP $500 Colossus has gone from a 11.50% rake in 2015 to 17%...

The Moroccan computer engineer qualified through a promotional freeroll on CoinPoker, earning a package that allowed him to enter a $25,000 Triton event.

I remember that awhile back, 888poker had a feature where you could play at tables with other players’ webcams visible. You could also chat using your webcam. I really enjoyed those games, and they actually got me into playing cash games when I usually only played tournaments. I wish they had never removed the feature, but I understand why. Some people would act out on camera, while others would simply block or cover their webcam. Would you be interested in webcam tables if we added them...
