    Couple of questions for you Hold 'Em players:

    What is the "rake"?

    Also, why does the dealer "burn" cards before turning over the flop, etc.?

    In tournaments, there is no rake, it is in the buy in that they make the money. We play a 10+1 tournament, where the house gets the $1.

    They burn the card to keep the dealer from cheating, or to make it harder to cheat.

    So it costs you $11 to "buy into" a game?

    3 sounds good to me. I'll set it up once we have 5 players.

    No, just our tournament that we are going to be in Friday.

    There are tournaments of all sizes.

    You can just play in a ring game and there is no entry fee at all.

    it looks like 3pm is going to be hard for me. early morning 9 or 10am would be better, but if it must be 3pm I'll still schedule it but not sure if I can play.

    As far as I'm concerned earlier is even easier. So you guys agree on a time and I'll join regardless of it (until 5pm that is).

    I can play anytime.

    As far as what the rake is....

    In the poker game of life, women are the rake. They are the ing rake.
