Summary:

Carbon Poker is a part of the hugely popular Merge Network and one of
the most popular poker rooms on the internet for US players. Carbon
Poker offers a combination of a strong bonus, regular monthly promotions
and software that contains some great features which won't be found
elsewhere.

Features:

One of the main advantages of playing your poker with Carbon is the
sheer amount of features that you can take advantage of.  "Dealing it
Twice" or Rabbit Hunting are things that you may only expect to find
down at your local casino, but Carbon are one of the very few rooms to
allow this online.

Equally, a Bad Beat Jackpot and a Royal Flush bonus ensure that players
have a better chance of winning some huge cash prizes - indeed the last
Bad Beat Jackpot reached over $1m: the largest jackpot in online poker
history.

Bonus:

The Carbon Poker Bonus consists of a 100%
Match Bonus worth up to $600. New players will also receive entry into a
special Freeroll tournament worth $1,000 and access to a number of new
player freerolls that can be entered into at any time during the first
two weeks after you first sign up for the site.

The cash side of the bonus is earned at a rate of $1 per 250 comp points
that a player earns at the tables. With the ability to earn 10 comp
points from a single hand, the Carbon Poker bonus can be cleared very
quickly by regular players.

Rakeback:

New Carbon Poker players can earn 30% Rakeback on top of the bonus
mentioned above (as long as you haven't made a real money deposit on the
network within the last 60 days). Even better news is that players will
have their rakeback paid into their players account on a daily basis -
something that very few other rooms do.

The Rakeback is calculated using the contributed method with tournament
fees now counting towards your rakeback amount.

Please note though that players are only allowed one rakeback account on
the Merge network.

Tournaments:

The tournaments on Carbon tend to be mainly low and medium buy ins with
the flagship tournament being a monthly $20k guaranteed which attracts a
large player base.

As Carbon aim to blur the lines between online and offline poker, they
have also introduced a number of ladies-only tournaments which tend to
run on alternate days - another feature that you're not going to find in
other poker rooms.

Traffic:

The traffic on the Merge network is not as huge as you will find
elsewhere, but there are still plenty of players to ensure that you will
find a game whenever you log on. Carbon's player base originally comes
from the now defunct poker.com poker room and is continuing to grow.

At the time of writing, statistics show 2,000 members playing in
tournaments during peak hours.

Software:

The Carbon Poker software offers a very different experience to what you
will find elsewhere. Packed with features and hugely reliable, the
software is built on vector graphics which stay sharp even when windows
are reduced to a fraction of their size meaning that multi-tablers will
instantly feel at home.

Stats functions are good giving players accurate information about
average pot size and viewed-flop percentage. Players also have the
ability to make notes about their opponents.
 

Support:

Although, the support at Carbon may not be as strong as you will find at
other rooms, there is a still a very good email service with questions
being responded to quickly and accurately. Should you need a more timely
resolution to your problem, then there is a live-chat option available
which is manned 24 hours a day.
