Changes Welcomed By Best UK Poker Rooms

06th January, 2010

Online poker players at some of the best uk poker rooms can look forward to some exciting changes, if the latest press release from one of the leading online poker networks is anything to go by.

Microgaming Poker Network (MPN), the online poker arm of the world's leading online casino software company, has announced that the rake taken from each table is now based on 'weighted contribution' rather than the current method which favoured those uk poker rooms who gave away lots of rakeback.

The new method is much fairer and is based more on the amount contributed to the pot - which is good news for operators and players all round.

A spokesman for Microgaming commented how the would be welcomed by the poker rooms they service...

'The introduction of the new Weighted Contribution will reward operators with a greater proportion of looser, fishy type players, encouraging them to target these players proactively whilst making rakeback as a practice less attractive within the Network.'

'It is believed this initiative will encourage the right sort of contributing players into the Network whilst discouraging the grinding type of behaviours which can be so negative to the health of the Network.'

Some of the best uk poker sites will be affected by this change, including 32Red Poker.
