Quality Over Quantity: Comparison to NLHE 2011
While 2011 is considered by many as the golden age of online poker, the results of top players then and now are similar. The 2011 rooms gave bigger rakeback, and players played for quantity over quality. Nowadays, players prioritize the quality of their playing over quantity.
So you'll see similar profits when comparing the two, but the best 2022 players have significantly higher bb/100. Rakerace.com lets you maximize your profits and get a better bb/100 by giving you fantastic rakeback potential.
