does it worth to select it? whats your oppinion on the subject? also it says on the site: "* Please note that maximum rake might vary for hands that are dealt twice." they take more rake when you run it twice ?

idk i thought total rake was $1 extra, maybe it caps at $5

I have learned from poker that being at the table is not a grind, the grind is living and poker is how I pass the time

Pay more rake but less variance. Honestly, if I have the choice of running it twice, I rather want to run it three times, an odd number, so at least someone wins.

It's just a really stupid way to cost yourself more rake. Ridiculous that they'd require more rake to perform such a simple thing. Such a cash grab.

It's up to $1 extra rake, and its your own preference if you want it on or not. It doesn't change the EV of the hand, except for the extra rake you pay.

The only hands a nit balances in his range are the nuts, the second nuts, and the third nuts.

eh, i dont know how it works, but if its a case of if a fish asks for it, probably better to just do it to let him enjoy himself better

Running it twice is a huge +EV move as a short stacker.

i get the feeling he means like if your br aside from the stack is 0 for all intents and purposes. that'd be fun

running it twice while paying more rake is the stupidest thing to a poker player who wants to maximize the EV of each hand.

The only reason why I can see someone running it twice is playing stakes they can't afford to play in (like taking an aggressive shot at a high stakes game) then the EV loss won't matter as much as it's a long term thing vs GOTTA WIN THE POT NOW OR I BUST.

In general I think it's retarded. I would actually love it myself if they didn't charge extra rake for it.

I play(played) 2-3 hours a week at 2/4 nlhe. Worth the extra three dollars to lessen variance. No shame in taking lower ev routes to lessen variance.

Now I really am a busto. Thanks FTP.

100% agreed with Yomer...only worth it if you playing games you cant really afford...like PLO with 10BI of the stake or something...
