I have never heard of such a thing in all my years playing poker. Here in Phoenix and in most Casinos I have played you pay a rake that is 3 dollars per hand, and it is shared amongst all of those playing not by the whole table for that hand. If a casino is doing a 35 dollar house cut for live play then he is trully getting screwed. If it was tournament play it is still high but not abnrmal to see. A 50 dollar tournament here is generally 30 to to the pot and 20 for the house. A terrible percentage but it is a tournmant here you have a chance to win ten times or more your buy in.
