​In any poker room - live or online - the house keeps a share of each pot.  This is the rake, and is the house's way of getting paid. 

In brick-and-mortar casinos, this money is gone (except for a promo or lucky jackpot).

In online poker, however, the sites give some of this money back to you, as a reward and an incentive.  This rakeback can have a big impact on your bottom line.

While it isn't the only factor you should weigh when choosing a site, rakeback is important. Different sites give back different percentages, and they have different bonuses and promos that can boost your bankroll.  Let's compare everything and find the best spot for you.
