Carbon Poker is on the Merge Network. The software is described by many the best on the net. It offers clean backgrounds and is easy to navigate around the room. Players can view their table in the same window as the lobby, a separate window for each table or a split window which fits up to 4 tables. Carbon has also added small features to add to players experience. The most favourable are the ability to show just one card and the rabbit option (once all players have folded the winner can decide to show the rest of the community cards). The newest feature is "Deal It Twice". This option is available when two players are all in pre-flop and if both players accept, the community cards can be dealt twice. If one player wins both times the full pot is theirs but if they both win one hand each, the pot is shared. Other features they offer are Player Notes, Chat smileys, Player tagging and personal avatars. Visit Carbon Poker
The average amount of online players on the Merge Network is 4000-5000 which raises to around 8,000 in the peak hours. This often leads to overlay in the tournaments and you will often see the same players. Visit Carbon Poker
Carbon Poker offers some of the softest games in the industry. Any solid player can easily profit in all games from $0.02/$0.04 up to $1/$2. Limits higher then $1/$2 often feature the same players so once you have played there for a while, you will be able to make a decent profit again. In the higher limits player notes become very valuable as you will often be playing with the same players. Visit Carbon Poker
Carbon Poker offers a wide range of games including Badugi, 5 card draw and Razz. Although there isn't much traffic on these games, when you do find a table the players will normally have a small knowledge of the game and usually are very soft. There is also different types of MTT such as shootout, bounty's and re buys. Visit Carbon Poker
