Quoted from nwpinball:My two home games, we've been playing the whole time online during Covid using pokernow.club and Venmo for payments. It's great, a few of the guys that moved out of state are back playing regularly. It's nice to hang out, even if it's virtually, and I consistently win some cash about every game and no one has to drive home after drinking.
You can do the same thing with pokerstars home games without any rake...our league moved from pokerrr2 to pokerstars a few months ago...better software also
Edit: I see now you mentioned pokernow, not pokerrrr2....does pokernow charge a rake?
