The warm summer months are coming to an end soon and it's time to replenish the bankrolls that were spent on festivals and vacations! Fortunately, Rakerace.com has a great offering of exclusive races for the second half of August!

One of the most successful races of in the first half of the month was the $1,500 Mybet race, here players received a remarkable average raceback of 67% and the paying spots on the leaderboard could be reached with just $61 in rake!

We expect similar returns in the second half of the month and the low number of entrants means that even low volume players have a great chance of making high returns. If we consider the additional value provided by the first deposit bonus and the VIP system, it's clear that Mybet is one of the best rooms in August!


The Everest Poker races also provided high value in the first half of the month, players of the first 10-day race recieved an average raceback of 36% and the current race (August 11 - 21) is likely to provide similar returns aswell.

Everest Poker
is a great choice for both small time players and serious grinders. There are 75 paying spots on the leaderboard so players who only rake a couple of Euros can get decent returns aswell, but big players have the top 3 spots and the massive $1,000 first place prizeto aim for! Everest Poker also provides a first deposit bonus and VIP returns, check out the room review page for more info.

Gala Poker is the other alternative for big grinders, although the raceback returns were a bit lower (23%), this is easily compensated by the bigger prize pool ($10,000 with $2,200 going to the winner) and the 36% cashback that Rakerace.com players are eligible for.

Much like the Mybet race, the Betfair and Intertops exclusive races also typically run with fewer entrants. We have previously written about the great offer that Intertops is running this month and the first race of the month was a big success with players receiving an average raceback of 32%. Combined with the 36% rakeback and the first deposit bonus players could achieve returns of up to 90%!

Players could achieve almost identical returns at Betfair although the paying spots required a bit more rake compared to Intertops.


Unibet and TigerGaming also have very attractive offer even though they don't have the highest raceback returns. According to a recent Q2 financial report, Unibet has grown 12% since last year and they recently purchased Stan James (a British bookmaker) which should lead to an even bigger increases in traffic.

Unibet is also planning to launch it's biggest promotion ever to celebrate the 200 millionth hand played on the site, where players could win up to €1,000,000! Unibet focuses on the recreational players and the field is thus much weaker compared to the bigger networks, if you are looking for juicy games, this room is a great choice!

The same goes for TigerGaming, a room in the Chico network which (according to our players) has a great field that is way behind on the learning curve compared to other rooms. TigerGaming also offers one of the best first deposit bonuses on the market which provides a whopping 55% return! Both rooms also run two exclusive races each month for even more value!

If you are also into sportsbetting, the exclusive Betsson Group race could also be interesting to you, the total prize pool is €5,000 with a €1300 first place prize! In addition to the exclusive race, you can also participate in the Betsson pooled race which runs with a €20,000 prizepool and a €2,250 first place prize!


If you are still not sure which room is the best for you, don't hesitate to contact Rakerace.com support, they will gladly help you figure out which room and network you should choose.

Get your grind on while most of the regulars are still chilling on the beach and increase your bankroll with our exclusive offers!

Good luck and have fun at the tables!
