Rake is the cut that the poker rooms take for each hand played and also covers the fees for both Sit N Go and Multi-Table tournaments. As a method of retaining the high-volume / higher value (and thus profitable) players many rooms offer to share their profits… in the form of Rakeback. SNG, Tournament and Cash players can all benefit – getting instant rebates on the fees they spend at a poker site. SNG Planet is proud to be able to offer some of the biggest rakeback percentages available at the leading poker sites, through our sister-site rakeback-planet.com.

Using some of the averages from the 2007 SNG Survey we can get some estimates of ROI for those high-volume SNG Multi-tablers and see how Sit N Go rakeback might affect your profits.

SNG Rakeback – Example 1 – Online Pro

SNGs Played = 1000 per month

Average Buy-in Level = $33

Fees Paid = $3000

Monthly Bankroll Increase With 30%* Sit N Go Rakeback = $900

SNG Rakeback – Example 2 – Winning ‘Leisure Time’ Player

SNGs Played = 250

Average Buy-in Level = $22

Fees Paid = $500

Monthly Bankroll Increase With 30% Sit N Go Rakeback = $167

SNG Rakeback – Example 3 – Mixture Of SNGs / MTTs / Cash Games

Games Played = 25 Tournaments / 5000 Cash Hands per week

Average Buy-in Level = $55 and $1 / $2 No-Limit

Fees Paid: $700 (approximate)

Monthly Bankroll Increase With 30% Sit N Go Rakeback = $210

Who Is Eligible For Sit And Go Rakeback Deals

Our sister site www.rakeback-planet.com has a clear policy here, you can only get a rakeback account with us if you have not previously had a real-money account at a particular poker site covered.

We do advise all Sit And Go Planet rakeback sign-ups to delete the poker site software concerned from their computer and to clear all cookies from their cache – however this is only as a precaution to avoid an ‘old cookie’ resulting in missing out on the rakeback deal , and should never be attempted in order to create a second account. There are many excellent poker sites offering rakeback for SNG and cash game players – no need to be blinded by the ‘big-2’ or those considered cool on various popular forums.

Smaller Volume Players And SNG Rakeback

If you are a smaller volume player, maybe only generating $100 or less in rake each month then your bankroll may grow larger by moving your money from room to room chasing different sign-up bonuses.

While there is nothing to stop smaller volume players signing up for rakeback accounts you may lose the benefits of the matched sign-up bonuses. We recommend that smaller volume ($100 a month in fees / rake or less) grow their bankrolls through sign-up bonuses at smaller sites, then return to rakeback at one of the larger sites which offer this once their bankroll and experience level is such that this is worthwhile – for more information see our ‘growing your SNG Bankroll through poker site sign-up bonus offers’ article.

For those generating significant rake each month then now is the time to make the move over to a rakeback deal – after all, the increase to your bankroll will allow you to move up faster… creating a virtuous circle of bigger profits.
