Gambling911.com has confirmed that the new Revolution Gaming online poker network, effective June 1, 2012, will begin to offer players an incredible 36 percent rakeback.  This is the highest rake on the current market.  Revolution Gaming will include the top brands Lock Poker and Cake Poker among others.  

The 36 percent will be paid daily into Lock Poker players accounts while other Revolution partners will have the option to do so.  At this moment only Lock is confirmed on board with the daily rakeback. 

Additionally we are learning that Revolution Gaming site Lock Poker will feature a brand new VIP program, $1 million dollar rake chase, and a new online poker tournament schedule that kicks off with a $100k GTD/75k Superstack on June 3.

Lock pros Annette Obrestad and Chris Moorman will host one of the tournaments while a second tournament will be hosted by pros Matt Stout and Melanie "Callisto" Weisner.

Both existing and new players to Lock Poker will receive a 200 percent bonus up to $2000 (restrictions do apply). 

Gambling911.com has also learned Lock Poker players will no longer be able to change their nicknames as of June 1.

"We are very proud to announce the changes we have made so far. This is only the beginning. The world of online poker has been overwhelmed with so much disappointment and broken promises," says Jennifer Larson CEO of Lock. "We understand the incredible desire for players to be given some hope and reassurance. Lock and Revolution Gaming are passionate about bringing back the players trust, excitement and sheer fun that feels like a distant memory. Its time for a Revolution!"
