Abstract: A gaming server hosts a turn of a zero-sum game played by a plurality of players via a plurality of websites, each of the websites having a respective clearing account. The application server determines for each player a respective player value contribution based on the wagering activity of the player during the turn and a respective player value indicator associated with the player. The application server determines a total player value contribution based on the player value contributions of all of the players who played during the turn. The application server determines for each player a respective rake allocation based on the player value contribution of the player and the total player contribution. The application server credits each website's clearing account based on the respective rake allocation of each player who used the website to play the game during the turn.
