PLO2 GGPoker R&C beatable in Germany?

Hi guys,

I am wondering if it is possible to beat rush and cash from germany on ggpoker. Why I am writing the info "from germany"? Because of taxes we have another rake structure than from others countrys.

Our structure ist rake 6% (not 5%) and rake cap is 5bb (not 3bb).

I did play about 6.000 hands and thats my graph on pokercraft.

(https://ibb.co/ks39MVpd)

If you calculated the rake in bb/100 it would be:

winnings on the graph: 16$ => 800 bb

hands played: 6000

winnings on the account: 0$ (break even)

so the rake i paid is about 16$ = 800 bb

800 / 60 = 13,4 bb/100 hands

Is it still beatable? Do you think the rake is still higher than calculated?

I would say that it should be more than 13bb/100, unless you play really tight. But sample size is a bit small, it might change few bb's with bigger sample size as it's always related to how many pots you win.

It is beatable for sure, as for PLO2 the Care and Big Hand freerolls are very valuable (as the lowest payout is so much in bb's). Leaderboard also should be a big portion of the profits. To beat the game itself is hard due to that rake and additional fee for Bad Beat jackpots and those flipament freerolls. And in R&C average opponent plays thight, so it's hard to gain huge edge over them. The key to beat the rake is to identify the recreationals and adjust your strategy when playing with them. And of course make a lot of notes from the regulars, as most of your hands are against them. And as they autopilot through 4-8 tables you can exploit their tendencies when you find them.

The normal leaderboards for german are excluded. We do have German leaderboards. But you have to Play a lot of hands to reach weekly payouts. My Focus ist on quality Not in quantity. So reaching payouts in leaderboards Not possible fort me.

I would stay out of rush at least. If there is enough tables running in normal tables you will likely achieve way higher winrate on those. Especially if there is enough for table selecting as well.

Well, normal tables at GG are also affected by leaderboards. Due to them there are a lot of multitabling nitregs. And then of course those miniministacks. And while you can't play leaderboards, your opponents can and it affects their playing style. Accompanied by market-low rakeback I would say that any other site/network is better at PLO2 or PLO5 than GG for you.

In that case I would start playing higher and definitely on other site, idk if Coin is available for you, but I would suggest apps as well, probably HU to be 100 % sure that there is no collusion going on.

Because that rake will be almost impossible to beat. Also given the fact your rakeback is very limited.

Anyways, good luck at the tables!
