New to rakeback?
What is rake?
Rake is the cut that the house/gaming operator take out of every pot played for real money. The rake is usually 5% of each pot capped at $3 and it normally ranges from $0.5 to $3.
What is rakeback?
Rakeback means that you will get a percentage of the rake you pay to the poker room back when you play through SmartGambler. With rakeback you are rewarded for being a loyal player with the site and if you are a serious online poker player you probably pay hundreds or thousands of dollars in rake each month. Sign up for a rakeback deal here at Smartgambler.com and get back your fair share of the rake!
Simply speaking, rakeback will give you back a percentage of the rake you pay to play with the poker site. All players pay a high amount of rake every single month to play, so no matter what stakes you play a rakeback deal will be profitable for you.
How are SmartGambler able to get some of my rake back and how can you offer this?
By bringing new costumers to the poker rooms, we get a part of the rake they bring in. We give a very large portion of this back to the users and only keep a very small cut ourselves. What is offered on the front page is your side of the deal, which is completely unaffected by our cut.
How is the rake calculated?
If there are ten players at the table when the hand is dealt and the rake is $3. This means that your part of the rake in this pot is $0.30. Please use our rakeback calculator to calculate how much you will be receiving in rakeback based on your play.
What is the difference between rake methods?
* Average contributed: the rake taken from a pot is equally divided between those who put money in the pot.
* Weighted contribution: the more money you get in the pot, the more rake will be registered as yours. If you put 1$ into a pot and fold, you have contributed $1 to the pot, which equals $0.05 rake no matter how big the pot becomes.
* Dealt: the rake taken is divided equally between all players who were dealt cards for the current hand.
Can I get rakeback on a poker room where I already have an account?
Most poker rooms don’t accept this; however there are a few exceptions. Contact us if you wonder if the poker room you are using supports this.
When do I receive the rakeback?
You will get the rakeback in the beginning of the next month. Exactly date varies from deal to deal, but it is listed at our site if you click the deal in question.
How will I receive my rakeback?
Most of our deals will be paid directly to your poker account, although there are a few exceptions. You can find information about this on every deal if you click them to see more details.
Are there any hidden strings or attachments?
No. What is written in the deal is what you get. We are not hiding anything.
Is it possible to sign up for a rakeback deal on a different poker room on the same network that I already have a registered account?
Yes, this is no problem at all. You can sign up a rakeback deal with every poker room we have offer deals from, where you don’t have an account already. Additionally, we have deals with more than one skin at some of the networks, so even if you have an account on another skin, you can still get rakeback on that network.
How can I find out how much rakeback I have earned?
Log in, and go to “my account”. There you will find details about how much you have raked and how much you have made in rakeback this month, last month and all time. There are also a small summary on the front page in the top right, below your username.
I played yesterday but my stats still shows the same, why?
The rake stats on our members get automatically updated every time we receive the reports from the poker rooms. If we don’t receive a report one day from a poker room, your rake will be added to the next day’s report. It will not be lost!
Why does Poker Tracker/Poker Office etc. say that I have raked more than my SmartGambler statistics?
Poker tracking software does rarely show the exactly right rake statistics. This is because most poker tracking software use the “Dealt” rake calculation. See the rake methods in the FAQ for more information.
