Poker pro Chase Bianchi has gone on a one-person crusade against the Encore Resort at Boston Harbor claiming its poker room offers absurd 10% up to $10 rake.
I will not be playing 5/10 or lower at @EncoreResortBH with their absurd 10% up to $10 rake. Operation nuke poker is a go! Well done on the plan so far guys!

Encore casino, which opened its doors just two years ago, offers a variety of slot machines and table games in over 200,0000 square feet of gaming space, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
But Bianchi plans to avoid the resort, or at least not play poker there. He is urging fellow poker players to do the same and has called upon the Massachusetts Gaming Commission to investigate.
I'd also encourage local poker players to write/email/call gaming and tell them how predatory this pricing by @EncoreResortBH is. They should not be the only license holder in the area if they're going to price gouge their customers. https://t.co/cJcOHF7KEE

Bianchi indeed has some sway. A man of faith, the 34-year-old has one WSOP bracelet under his belt having won the 2016 WSOP Event #17: $1,000 NLH for $316,920.
He finished in 9th place at this year's WSOP $ 10,000 No Limit Hold'em - WSOP Main Event (Event #67) for a cool million dollars. He's also been a member of the ACR Stormers, the official Americas Cardroom Twitch team.
