Hi @Stubbe-Unibet,
I'd like to give some feedback on the Banzai rake changes as a recreational player who has put in (What i see as) decent volume in the Banzai formats.
Overall, I think the increase is far too much, the games wont be able to handle it.
Since the start of 2020 I've played 140k hands of B20, raking €5.7k and profiting about €12.4k, which is 4.5bb/100.
If you increase the rake 2.5x, that 5.7k turns into 14.25, meaning that for the same period and level of play, I'd now be at +€3.8k - knocking my winrate down by 70%(!!!) to <1.5bb and making it not worth playing.
I often start games and play shorthanded, stopping doing that would mean less hands overall for the Banzai format
As a sweetener, I've also raked 5k in HUSNGs and tbh I only play them when Banzai isn't running, against opponents who hold lobbies (IE my game is always the marginal addition, so its prob 10k that wouldnt have been raked).
I know that the money for promotions has to come from somewhere, but this ruins a format that is the only reason I log into Unibet and is unbeatable on other sites where rake is higher, such as Sky which I quit playing on after they took their business in a similar direction. I think the maximum that the game would support long term is 1.5%, with 2.5% you are very seriously risking a dead format, at least for vast swathes of the day; Its likely to always run Fri/Sat night of course.
