i.e., let's say 1 krill = 1 chip in rake
There's 5 people on the table
3 fold, leaving 2
Those 2 build the pot up enough to bring in 5 chips worth of rake
In this scenario, is it:
1) Each player gets 1 Krill (5/5=1) or
2) Players 1-3 get nothing, the two that stayed in each get 2.5 (5/2=2.5)?
It is divided to all players dealt in to the hand. The formula for Krill is:
√(rake) multiplied by (5 / players dealt) then multiplied by any other bonus factor currently in effect and finally rounded down to the nearest tenth of a Krill
Thanks for that. So essentially... (let's assume a 6-person table)
The minimum rake would be 9/625 (0.0144) to get credit (sqrt(9/625)*5/6=0.1).
The minimum pot for this rake would be 0.576 (2.5%*x=9/625).
Breaking this down for 9 players would result in a minimum pot of 1.296.
So it IS possible to gain Krill on the micro-stakes, so long as there are 6 or fewer players and the pot gets to 0.576 (or a pot of ~1.3 chips with 9 players).
All of this is also excluding the bonuses.
Just wanted to share this in case someone finds an error with my math or, like me, is curious as to what ends up gaining Krill, . I was actually under the impression it was nearly impossible on the lower stakes to gain it (like with most sites), so this was a big eye opener!
