We all know that poker has changed a lot over time, the years where being a “rakeback player” made you win money were forgotten, except for some rooms like RIO Poker, most are taking the path of eliminating these benefits, if This is good or bad, look at PokerStars and its rewards system, which is not even the shadow of what it was.
That the rooms take these measures affects the dream of being a professional poker player, it is not a secret that it is more difficult to make money today than 10 years ago, poker changes in great steps, but, if the decisions you make the rooms prevent that, in the long term, it is impossible to be a professional player are actions that we must question and make ourselves more aware.

Before, it was easier to earn money but now people, they learned to play poker and it's hard to make money. Even so, i was not a big player so i can enjoy by a good Rakeback. The reason is Pokerstars, of course ... which always blocked me to make money with his horrible cards and dubious players.
