Carbon Poker Review

Carbon Poker may be one of the new kids on the block but it is certainly proving itself to players and is surely destined to succeed. From great software and quick withdrawals to huge promotions, players are not disappointed. The games tend to be loose due to many of the new players still lacking experience at online poker. Naturally with loose games, the stakes tend to be very low, though more profitable playing can be found in the more unusual types of games. They are able to accept US players which has aiding them in prospering so fast. The more players play real-money poker at Carbon Poker the more Comp points they earn! Carbonís Comp points can then be used to at the comp points store or for exclusive bonuses.

Carbon Poker offers a variety of core games such as, Texas Hold’em, Omaha Hi and Hi-Lo, Razz, Five-Card Stud, Seven-Card Stud Hi and Hi-Lo, Triple Draw and Badugi. They also include many new types of mixed games. Though most of the tournaments are still focused on Texas Hold’em and Omaha, there are also tournaments for Badugi and Draw poker. The room also provides plenty of multi-table and sit-n-go tournaments where players can enjoy plenty of special offers and giveaways.

The Carbon Poker software package is good and offers some nice unique features such as, great mini-views for up to 8 multi-table playing, a Rabbit Hunt feature which lets players view the next card in the deck for a folded hand and an awesome Expose One Card function. In another neat addition, players may also show off their wins by attaching trophies to the avatars. Unfortunately, the software does not allow players to export hand histories. All in all, the Carbon software is clean and smooth with excellent graphics and stability. The software is updated on a regular basis to ensure safety with little to no down time. The tables at Carbon are basically small and easy to grasp. The graphics are vector-based which makes multi-table playing an enjoyable experience.

According to statistics the traffic volume at Carbon Poker is still in the lower range of the industry but increasing daily. Especially since they recently merged with the Merge Gaming Network. As of July 2008, studies show 500 ring-game players and up to 2,000 tournament players during peak playing times. Carbon Poker continues to attract players world-wide.
