Palm Springs Poker - Rake

I’m looking to play some poker in Palm Springs this week for the first time. These rakes seem to make me want to play 2/5 rather than the 1/3 I’m used to playing…1/3 rake seems to screw you over here. Also, am I reading this correctly that $2 is taken from the pot regardless if there’s a flop or not? And that a $15 pot they would take $4 rake? If so…wow.
