The recent explosion of online poker has seen poker companies listing on the stock exchange and everyone trying to get a piece of the action. There are actually now hundreds of poker sites on the internet to pick from but by the end of the day all of them offer exactly the exact same thing - the chance to gamble some of our hard earned cash against faceless opponents, sitting miles away in certain other included in the globe. In our underwear if we so wish.

The adrenalin rush of sweating it out on the turn of a card with a small fortune at stake is now reachable without the need of to leave the home. We aren't required to travel, go out into the cold, worry about dress code or possibly a taxi home. We can play any time of the day or night - there's no closing time. We don't have to miss Corry or Enders. As long as there is money in our poker account we can play till our hearts content.

But that's the problem is not it - how do we keep money in our account. The first few times of playing we're feeling our way in, learning the guidelines. But it appears so fast and furious. We are always being told to hurry up by the computer - "Hang on I'm thinking! He's probably got an ace but I'm not really sure. Give me a second to think! Oh I fold then."

But as time goes by, and we begin to be worried about how many Neteller transfers we appear to be making, we gradually get the hang of it. We win a couple of hands; we start to work out our opponents; we actually come off a table in profit!

We up our stakes, we start playing the bigger tables - no limit even. We enter a tourney or two - even get to the final table. Can't quite win even though. But we're not feed for the sharks anymore. We haven't made a deposit for days now and we are still playing!

But this is all dependent upon winning - at least now and then. Poker is all well and good as we win, but whenever we have to keep clicking that 'Deposit Funds' button it becomes rather tiresome. If only there was some way to guarantee that funds are deposited into our account without the credit card taking the hit.

Well actually there is and it is amazing how lots of individuals are now playing poker (right at this very second even) which do not know about Rakeback. It appears to be a little known fact that many of the poker companies, who are desperately vying for our business, actually offer money back just for playing.

Well it's time to spread the good news.

The profit that the poker companies make is called 'The Rake'. They take a portion of the pot of every game that is played. We do not even notice it's gone. But it builds up into quite just a little pile of profit for said company. The term Rakeback actually comes from the method utilized in casinos where the dealer would use his chip rake to drag a number of chips in to a bucket...only to cover their costs. And make the odd million.

Online poker companies do the exact same thing, albeit electronically. And as being an incentive for us to sign up with their site, they offer referral incentives, within the form of Rakeback, through various online Rakeback sites. This is just what it says on the tin - we get a bit of 'The Rake' given back to us. Thus, for almost every hand that we play, the poker site takes their share and gives us just a little back throughout the affiliated Rakeback site. If you play enough poker this will likely add up to a tidy little sum and come the end of the month, our poker account receives a good little injection of cash.

It doesn't matter whether we have won or updated blog post lost - we've played. And that is all we have to do to get our Rakeback. If we play enough it can fund our poker for the whole month. We can even lose and still not be out of pocket. Imagine that.
