If you’ve gone over to the eGaming Review site to check out the stories I’ve linked to concerning William Hill’s stance on rakeback and affiliates you might have noticed the following footer on the articles:
Marcus’ comments will be published in full in the eGaming Review August edition’s special rakeback feature, which also includes views from Rake the Rake chief executive Karim Wilkins, Entraction chief executive Peter Astrom, poker affiliate Bill Rini and Keith Freeman, founder of PokerStrategy.org, the industry’s first affiliate to offer a ‘rake rebate’.
If you happen to get the print version it might be worth a read. Then again, it might not. I haven’t seen it yet. :-)

Hi, my name is Bill Rini and this is my poker blog. I've been blogging about poker and the poker industry since around 2003-ish. Like most people I started out playing poker as entertainment in home games whenever we wanted to sit around and smoke cigars, drink beer, and eat pizza, and needed a good excuse. I started playing online shortly after the first online card rooms opened and it wasn't long before I was playing 20, 30, or even 40 hours a week or more. One day I received a phone call about a program manager position at Tiltware which was the company that consulted to Full Tilt Poker on software development and marketing. After Tiltware I spent about 2.5 years working at Party Poker where I was the poker room manager.

The guy in charge of raketherake has just joined in the debate. Could rakeback be totally banned and sent underground. Or maybe all sites could do a pokerstars and give cpa’s only? poker rakeback
